hello,

i did not want to hijack the thread i stole this qouye from so i started a new one.

my question is why do you all choose long comutes?is it housing ,geography,great jobs.

i have family that live in so. cal bonita to be exact.most of them work fairly close to home.the farthest being a comute into sandiego (that one is fairly long).

im not knocking any ones reasoning just curios is all.

i drive 22 miles each way to work,takes 1/2 hour during rush hour.i am considered to have a long ride by most people.

thanks for your time,

trevor

Actually, I an temporarily here in Garbage Grove at one of our company's other facilities managing a pallet pool system. It's like 36 miles one way. Normally I work in Ontario, Ca. which is 9.25 miles from home. I hate commuting but with my hours the way theu are right now, it's usually like a 40 minute drive which is acceptable. The one harsh thing is that gas prices keep climbing. I refuse to commute anymore - except temporarily. The money is not worth it. I could earn another $20k or more if I worked somewhere else but it's just not worth it. Where I live, I'm at the border of Orange, San Bernardino, and Riverside Counties, not a bad spot at all.

thats like a walk in the park

 

I drive almost 86 miles one way, I leave the house at 4:30 and am here by 6:00 leave work at 4 and home by 5:30.

I couldn't imagine commuting like that to work - it's bad enough i work 7 minutes away from work . hopefully, i'll be able to find something closer, otherwise i'll have to think about buying a motorhome and living in the parking lot during the week.

 

sorry guys, had to rub it in.

[crazy^millman]

It in my case is a matter of neccesity. I have a 42 miles commute one way. I could live closer but homes cost anywhere from $200,000 to $500,000 closer to my job depending on which way you go. I would drive that extra bit to have my family in a house than live in apartment.

Hi Trev

I have a 22 mile door to door same as you.

I worked with gcode for a while it was 80-something miles one way.

(Why), I needed work,and gcodes place has my kind of projects, If it worked out for all parties, I would have moved closer.

corey ,

are you working from home on some days?i know you had mentioned only needing to go in to the shop a couple days a week.

Trev,

Not yet, I am trying to get things going here,

I have quite a few hats on and not to much time,

enough to hang out here and play with X though

 

As long as I got things set up by winter (the week that it lasts)I'll be good to go.

[Leehound]

My commute is about 100 one way.... err thats paces not miles sorry. From my back door to the shop door is 30 seconds, of course thats during rush hour.

[MACHINEMASTERG]

thanks for all the replies .everyone.when i got out of school i had concidered a move to california. to be honest im glad i did not,now im leaning to eventually move my family up north.twards the adirondacks or white mountain region.i dont know if i could take the endless summers.id rather deal with black flies in may than heavy traffic on the interstate.

[crazy^millman]

Good Luck Trevor. Hope you get things going in a direction you like.

ROFL!!!!! No need to be tho thentitive. LOL!!!!

 

I'm just glad it's not us for a change. Welcome to xxxx nation Chris!!!! You know, at least you probably have a chance of getting your stuff overturned, us... we pass a near 70% referrendum a few years back (and NOTHING passes with 70% here... trust me on this) vote to define marriage as between a man and woman. Who knows if the legislators will OBEY THE MASSES and make a constitutional amendment defining marriage the same way. They are all so freaking wacked in the head...

 

James teh stirrin' the pot!!!

[Scott Bond]

+1 I'm just glad it's not us for a change.

Is it just me or did every gay couple on the news last night look exactly the same as the next?

[Karen@S4A]

This is totally inappropriate.

 

I would really appreciate if you guys would consider what you are saying before posting it on an open forum.

 

Tomorrow I will be lucky enough to witness the marriage of my brother and the man that he has been with for the past 9 years. What Bill and Don are doing is not going to hurt you so what makes you feel the need to belittle them?

[chris m]

Damn Karen; I'm sorry

 

We were just fooling around

 

I'll email you..
