So I am up early again today… Off to work we go!
The last three jobs we are doing that involve working on a house have been 45 minutes to an hour from home.
My first thought is I wouldn’t want to commute like this all the time. The people, the madness, some are driving as if to say “get outta the way or I’ll run you down bitch! ” We even had a police officer try to cross the highway right in front of us…
I do like the stopping and getting coffee part of the commute and it is fun to see all the different people that are up early hurrying to get their coffee and head to work. I could not imagine how it would be to have to punch a time clock every day…
My second thought is I would have all kinds of excuses why I was late. I had to feed the chickens, I ran into Mark, you know he likes to talk, sorry had to go to Lowe’s. It seems as though daily life would get in the way, how do people that commute and punch the clock get any daily life things done.
Even with the days getting longer, there is never enough time to get everything done. For a commuter, by the time they put in an eight hour day and drive 1 hour each way, 10 hours of the day are gone. And after that, who’s in the mood for doing anything else?

One reply on “Commuting”
I agree on both counts…I would hate to have a long commute. Forty-five minutes or more everyday would be horrid. AND I would hate to punch a time clock. I did for a lot of years but after being self employed for an equal length of time, it would be hard to go back.
I do find I have a lot of distractions now. I don’t really know how I used to get everything done. Perhaps, I am less motivated to make it all happen.
Have a great week.
