See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

This office has several mega-commuters, including one woman who lives in the Poconos.

The average commute for my zip code is 38 minutes +/- 10, which sounds about right - having this assignment so close to my house is an aberration.

I'm about 7 miles from work, so a 15 minute commute most days. Definitely beats the 77 mile/90 minute commute I used to have.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
16.5 miles by car. It takes 35-45 minutes to drive, about an hour by train (counting walking to and from the train stations) and about 90-110 minutes by bike.
This is the farthest commute I've had since a summer job I had in college. When work was in Evanston my commute was about 3.5 miles. 15 minutes by bike and about a 50 minute walk.

My last job was about 26 miles one way. I do not miss that part, no.
My last Good Job before that was less than 3 miles away as the bird flies, but took as much time as the 26 mile commute -- OTOH, it was walking and subway, which was healthier and more relaxing.
I so hope my next job is easily accessible by public transportation!

My worst commute was when I lived in Wheaton, MD, and commuted, via the Beltway, to McLean, VA.
After that job, I decided that I never wanted to live anywhere that I needed to own a car.

My boss commutes 60 miles, and it takes her the same amount of time driving as it does me with my 14 miles on the bus.

Oh god that sounds horrible.
Average commute time for my zip code is 41 minutes (average commute times for almost everywhere in NYC is equal to the average time to get to midtown Manhattan on the subway). My commute is longer because my office is three long blocks from the closest station.
[eta: Neat, if you scroll up to Westchester County you can clearly see where the express stations are by the color-coding.]
