Off topic question

Morning
If by car Google is saying from Sai Kung to Chep Lap Kok airport in Hong Kong is 56.9 Kilometres (35 Miles) or 59 Minutes.
Although some days I park midway and catch a train.
I generally leave 1.5 hours before I sign on.

Fortunately I only have to do it about 5 times a month

Regards
Anthony

Must be nice to only work 5 days a month…
I got to move to HK :)

One job, I walk down the hill into the shop.

The other is 30 minute drive.

Both have likes/dislikes.

I am retired, the shop is approx. 20 yards. from the house. Mel

Just at 9 miles one way. Once a commute becomes a certain length that job hourly wage or salary takes a huge hit in my book. I had a 40 mile commute for about 6 months after college and it became clear why “give” 2 more hours towards something I don’t want to really do in the first place. I have been fortunate to have been doing that 9 mile commute for 20 years now. I figured the savings in gas, vehicle wear, etc.. has been thousands of additional dollars over the years I could invest.

Little over 6 miles when I have to go in.

About 25 meters. My shop is outside, all the machines are mobile.

My shop is our Two car garage and it’s attached to the house. Everything is on wheels so i can still get our pick up truck in there if I want too.

I am about 20 miles one way, company truck ànd credit card. But that does not count the appointments I have each day. Now my new shop build 20 feet from the house.

Distance and time are two different things here with DC traffic, my “regular” commute is about 40 miles, and can be 1.25 to 2 hours. For my further out locations, maybe 1 visit a month, 250 miles and 4 to 5 hours.

When I worked…. Croton Falls to NYC 5 min to train, 1h2 and 20 by train to Grand Central, 20 min walk or 10min subway to the office. Then move south 5 min to train 60 min on train 10-20 walk or the shuttle to Times Sq.

I used to drive about 38mile each way; 50mins in the early morning drive to work then after 10-11hrs a 75mins drive home in the afternoon, but only 5days; the weekend was mine.

Never really clocked it but it takes me about 9 minutes going through downtown. I estimate it is about 4 miles. My wife works with me but drives separately. When we buy used cars we can get a high mileage one and after a few years it becomes a low mileage version. Even driving my truck to appointments and such after 2 1/2 years I have yet to crack 20,000 miles. I am very spoiled.

Thanks you guys.
My goal is the retirement walk of 20 yards, but that wont be for probably 5-6 more years.

Some good points about time vs miles. It’s normally 18-20 minutes for me.
I have a straight shot, about mile and a half to the freeway, then it’s freeway all the way to my shop.

Retired now, but my commute was ~5 miles. I used a bicycle to work about 150 days a year.
