  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

mine's may be 15 minutes in the morning when I'm headed to court and around half an hour in the afternoon when I'm going to my office which is located 5 minutes from my house.. I like the arrangement as it lets me drop off to the house when ever I want.

Currently, i have no commute, working from home.

Previously, about 2 minutes, came home for lunch most days and stopped by to "pick things up" when necesary.

For future employment, it's gonna be at least 50 minutes or so, depending upon traffic.

When I cover my local accounts maybe an hour or a little over.

The only bad is when I cover a case in Ohio my commute is about 3+(most on a plane)

35 minutes one way, but it is opposite of traffic so I am going 70 mph the whole way. Back when I lived in Atlanta I had a 11 mile commute that took me almost 45 minutes. I had to get the hell out of that town before I lost my mind sitting in traffic.

Well since the move mine got a lot longer....it used to be 25 feet, now it's almost 60 feet from the chair in the family room to my office. Man, the mornings can be soooo rough!

My wife commutes 45+ minutes each way...

I live only a couple miles from the office, so I drop off my son at school & run errands, take care of homework, meals or any other kid transport...

The upside is that I'm close to home for lunch, mailbox recovery missions..

About 15 minutes to work, maybe a half hour on the way home. I get here before 6, but leave during evening rush hour. Considering it it Socal, and some of my buddies commute for over 1.5 hours, I don't complain at all.

Right now my commute is about 5 minutes, but I'm looking at a job that will be 45-60 minutes, depending on traffic.

It's a little over 40 miles to the office. It takes an hour with no traffic. This morning took about an hour and a half due to the rain.
