    Every day??

    Mine is 14.5 one way now. I used to do 75 one way. That got old really quick. I now work more hours and make lots more and am home the same amount of time. Not to bad.

    Sadly I drive down to work Monday morning and stay all week. Then come back home Early Saturday morning. It's about a 3hr ride each way.

    Currently looking for work around here, just nothing pays. I don't see how people live off of 12-14$ per hr.

    It's about 30 ft from my bedroom to my 'work chair'.

    I'm very blessed. :)

    I have about 10 feet from my bed to my desk. Get up at 459 am, and still make it by 5!

    29 miles one way. Some of you guys make me jealous, some of you guys make me think my 29 miles is peanuts.

    Mine is 19 miles. This is the closest in my 23+ years of work that I've been to the house. In the not so distant past I drove 130 miles each way to work. Those were LONG days! I got out of construction and took a job with the local utility company to be home with the family more. Definitely been worth it.
