Weekly_Lawfulness_43@reddit
75 mins each way commuter into London, don’t mind as can read book on train and get steps in
F1nut92@reddit
15-20 minutes, so 40 or so minutes a day, 5 or 6 times a week.
OpenBuddy2634@reddit
15 minutes on foot, 5 in car
Will never work a job that requires more than either unless my pay increases. Severely limits my pool of options but also gives me so much time back in my day
Spam_Frittering@reddit
About three seconds
OpenBuddy2634@reddit
Still manage to be late for work?
Prediterx@reddit
Between 3 seconds and 1h 30
I have to be in the office twice a week, at home twice a week, so I guess my average is around 45 minutes.
Smooth_Leadership895@reddit
6 hours 2-4 times a week.
insertitherenow@reddit
25 min walk, 5 mins in the car or seconds if I’m working from home.
Frothingdogscock@reddit
I work nights, 50 minutes to get there, up to 90 minutes to get home.
I ride my motorbike whenever I can, it cuts both ways down to 40-ish minutes, and I look forward to it :)
Rasty_lv@reddit
5min each way. Walking would be \~30min, which with my schedule, doesnt work. (after work need to run home and take wife to her work, she doesnt drive). it would be 10min cycling, but I dont have a place where to store it. Not enough space at home, no shed, alot of thefts nearby, not keeping it in garden. E-scooters sound good, fucking illegal. So 5min car drive it is each way.
Hopeful_Durian_193@reddit
45-1hr depending on traffic.
sideone@reddit
Same, and I usually enjoy it.
Hopeful_Durian_193@reddit
A good podcast is the key 👌
sideone@reddit
I've listened to so many good audiobooks!
cherrylippz@reddit
About 20 mins, but double that if traffic is really bad…and it’s only 4 miles.
I used to commute over an hour, it would have to a dream job for me to consider that now.
Timely_Atmosphere735@reddit
About 10 minutes.
YOF626@reddit
Around 3 minutes
TSC-99@reddit
5 minutes
beneyh@reddit
25-30 mins to Heathrow airport each week
Mr_Emile_heskey@reddit
I work at a hospital. Takes on average 20-35 minutes.
Just as a fun fact, if I relied on public transport it would take 2 hours to get to work and 1 hour 30 to get home.
kwakimaki@reddit
About 7 mins.
DylboyPlopper@reddit
About 10 minutes
Xerxesvll@reddit
1 minute car drive 😂
PowerApp101@reddit
So about 500m away and you drive? Wow.
DanielReddit26@reddit
I presume they're being a bit economical with the truth tbh.
avnt792@reddit
Why not just walk it at that point?
Xerxesvll@reddit
A mix of laziness, unpredictable weather, more options at lunch/time
bbshdbbs02@reddit
15 minutes
hyper-casual@reddit
99% of the time I'm on the 2foot express from my bedroom to my office, but the days I do commute it's 45 minutes in the morning and 1.5 hours on the way home if I drive.
I used to do the same commute 5 days a week before covid, but it used to only take me 40 minutes each way, it just seems to have gotten slower and slower even though more people WFH nowadays.
LionOfVienna91@reddit
Anywhere between 30min to an hour each way, 2 days a week in the office. Zero complaints.
CR1SBO@reddit
About a 15min drive each way
elniallo11@reddit
45-50 min walk. Can do it in maybe 35 min via public transport
The_G00d_Son@reddit
15-20 min drive depending on traffic
Kpowell911@reddit
35 mins to 1 hour 45 mins each way. I do however get paid at time and a half for my return journey. Its a company paid van and fuel card too
Sulvano@reddit
About 7 minutes driving. About 5 minutes on a bike. 🚲
Awkward-Pomelo-4423@reddit
15-ish minutes. Depends on traffic.
Nine_Eye_Ron@reddit
From door to door it’s about 3 seconds.
Wooden-Strawberry-93@reddit
I work from home x
Firm_Environment_808@reddit
7 mins
humptydumpty12729@reddit
About 10 seconds. Bed to desk.
FilmFanatic1066@reddit
Either 20 mins or 30 seconds depending if I’m in the office of wfh
VolcanicBear@reddit
My commute is either 3 seconds or 3 hours. Averaging them would give an incorrect impression.
Uncoolusername007@reddit
3 minute walk.
99orangeking@reddit
Can’t tell if you live close to the office or if you work from home but have a really big house
nfurnoh@reddit
About 20 to 30 minutes, for 5 miles.
UniquePotato@reddit
25 minutes to work 60 minutes home
ShowmasterQMTHH@reddit
I work on the road as a rep 4 days a wee, so lots of driving, but i'm in the office on mondays. 15 minute drive with almost no traffic, its the closest i've ever had work to the house.
100% recommend.
Jezbod@reddit
I only do 2 days in the office as IT sysadmin and it's 15 each way, tractors allowing. Yes, I live in the country in the UK.
IamEclipse@reddit
It used to be about 5 seconds, but doubled to 10 seconds last year when we moved to a bigger house.
lavayuki@reddit
Mine is about a 10 minutes drive
blainy-o@reddit
Just over 10 minutes in the morning, 15ish in the afternoon.
Background-Farm4537@reddit
Depends where I’m going
PirateEducational168@reddit
20-30 minutes.
Less.
charlie_boo@reddit
10 mins each way generally.
Polz34@reddit
To get to work it's about 10-15 minutes one way, traffic dependant. Going in at 6am is nearer 7/8 minutes but leaving is around school leaving time (plus a lot of our staff leave at the same thing) so 15 minutes is more accurate
fucks_news_channel@reddit
about 8:15
_ShredBundy@reddit
On site 5x a week, usually a 30-45 min drive depending on traffic.
