how far is to far to drive to work

[1992suburban]

lookin at 65 miles.. 1 way in a company truck on company gas..

is that to far???

 

[mike75925]

used to, i'd say why would you wanna do that, (i used to live in houston). now i hear it more and more often. crazy ain't it? people who buy their own gas should take it off on their taxes hunh?

 

[1992suburban]

got an interview there tomorrow gonna see how long it takes and dtermine if its "worth it"

 

[mike75925]

pay and benefits for sure. but if they have a choice machine shop, with privileges it might be worth it

 

[1992suburban]

no machine shop..

 

[mike75925]

dang!

mapquest puts it at 1hr 15mins.. to get there.. so I am having DOUBTS!!

i remember being in the mil, people would live off base/ship for whatever reason. they would have to be up at 3 or 4 to be to work for a 0630 muster. i like sleep way too much. for me, they had better pay extremely well

 

[1992suburban]

took 1hr 8 minutes to be exact..

Looks like a great company JUST 1 hr to work.. is KILLER

It all depends on if the pay is worth it, if you can make similar pay somewhere closer i wouldnt even consider it. 1 hour is a wicked long drive.

when i work in pearland, tx, it is a 3 hour drive (~180 miles). we stay the week and comeback on the weekends

Also consider what traffic will be like in the morning. That will make it a longer drive too. I live in South Jersey and I have friend's with parents that travel to NYC every day for work.

i have an 1hr 10 minute bus journey to school, every day (exept weekdats and hols)
if the pay is good, and you like the look of the job, i would go 4 it!

1 hour bus ride to school, 5 minute bike ride to work.

this exchange student from germany was saying he had to ride a train for three hours one way to school everyday. i'd definitely dropout. no time for anything else.

[1992suburban]
