Well the market is pretty good from a buyers perspective - you should have no trouble at all.

I take the bus to work and i walk home. It's about 2.2 miles each way.

LabRat · 07-28-2008, 09:24 AM

My commute is 35 miles one way. It is 50-60 minutes from my front door to the lab door when you include the 12 minute walk from my parking ramp because of the lousy parking situation here. Off peak traffic hours and speeding I have done it in 40 minutes, but only on rare occasion

.

I love my job. I have high job satisfaction, excellent benefits, and a killer retirement plan. The worst part about it is in fact the commute.

The time I spend in my car has been spent away from my daughter, and that has hurt a bit. But becasue my bosses and job are so flexable, I am able to be with her whenever I want/need to such as leave early for soccer, or swimming, or like I am doing this summer, taking Thursday's off to hang with her on her daycare fieldtrips.

Do I wish I had that gas money? Hell yes. And my time is worth money too. But I grew up watching my parents loath the jobs they had to keep a roof over our heads, and feel lucky that my job rarely feels like 'work' because I enjoy it so much. If the worst part about it is the commute, so be it.

If that's the Rat complaining I reassess all of her opinions on how grumpy she can be.

Perfectly reasonable chick, carry on. Red, you meanie.
