And what do you do on your commutes?

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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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.
