re: Anybody here commute 45-60 miles each way for work?

If I kept the same benefits I'd probably do it, especially if there was an end in sight and the job was a stepping stone to a bigger goal.

Amount of miles doesn't mean much. How long would it take to drive those 45-60 miles?

Katy to Baytown/Mt Belvieu. Around 130ish round trip. I was doing that daily from jan - June this year but have been in the office since June, which is only 12 miles from my house.

It sucks at first but you do get use to it....it just sucks a little bit less. I will have to start making this commute daily agian in the next few months

I do. 150 miles a day roundtrip. A big pay bump is why I did it. Been doing it for 2 years now. You get used to it, and it teaches you zen and patience. The one thing that makes me hate it sometimes is the fact that I lose close to 4 hours of my day from the commute. Thus eliminating almost all of my free time.

I drive from baton rouge to opelousas everyday but they make it well worth it. .

I drive 65 miles one way(takes an hour). I actually moved away from Columbus but didn't want to part ways with my job. I'm used to the drive now and it doesn't bother me at all, but the miles I put on my car stings.

I do only work 4 days a week, which helps, but I'm the type of person that would prefer to work 5 shorter days. With the drive, I just refuse to switch back to that schedule though.

BR to Houma everyday for 6 months. It sucked. Rented a one bedroom in Houma After 6 months.

I commute a mile to work. I go home to take naps, get nooners..., shite like that. I have a job scratching my balls by the way.

I drive BR to Cov Mon-Thu about 65 miles each way.. takes 1 hour & beats living in a retirement community.

I drive about 800 miles a week on avg. Work with all the refineries and chem plants. Drove 1300 miles last week. I'm home all but about 2-3 nights a month so no big deal to me.
