And what do you do on your commutes?

    Either 36.1 or 50.1 km, between 1-1.5h, depending which route I have to take because of traffic. The shorter one goes through town, the longer one over a highway once around. Unfortunately I live on the opposite end of the city (used be just 10 min, until my company moved). I’m currently transitioning to a full WFH role though, should be finalised within the next 6 weeks.

    20-30 minutes, the time is spent dodging cars that pull out without checking the bike lane.

    30 minutes by bike or transit, but it’s about to be a lot shorter due to an upcoming move.

    I can work fully from home if I so wish, but I choose to go into the office as the perks are great and I like seeing people.

    While commuting by bike, I listen to a lot of podcasts. While on transit I usually do a lot of Duolingo.

    I’m unemployed right now but all my previous jobs have been within a couple miles and I would walk or every once in a while get rides with coworkers. Usually I listen to music on my phone outside of conversation. I’m looking for work currently that’s either online or that can still function that way. I really hate to contribute to the petrochemical industry and I try to reduce it however I can. Anything beyond like 5 miles, I’d basically have to contribute. We don’t have much of any public transport in the center of America and the little we do have seems to all run on gas anyway. In my specific area there’s not even chargers for electric vehicles, not as far as I’ve seen. It’s pretty whack, imo.

    One place I work currently is 10 minutes away by bike, through a park. It’s lush!

    If I carpool, 25 minutes. If I take public transit 1.5 hours. If I ride a bike 1 hour. I usually carpool there and leave at 3 to take transit back. I tend to work on the bus.

    35 miles. Takes about 45 minutes. Mostly listening to podcasts and preparing or decompressing. I don’t mind the drive. No traffic and it’s through the national forest. But I do hate buying gas.

    15 mins on foot. I’m lucky to be in a city where you can get from pretty much any point to any point in 30 mins by bike, so relocation wouldn’t be that painful, but as things stand, my office is about 1km away from me.

    Bout an hour.

    Thankfully I only do it twice per week.

    I listen to podcasts, audio books and music. It’s often where I have space to think too.

    Next year I’ll be doing the drive a lot less often, which is good and bad for different reasons

    Most days I don’t have a commute. Twice a week I cycle to the office for about an hour. No podcasts or anything, I just let my mind wander and reflect.
