This has probably been covered before, but just curious...

One of the benefits of an office in the home. Nice furniture that I selected myself, fresh coffee, radio playing my station, a nice view of the trees in the back yard, and no getting in the car when it's bitter cold outside....

I'm generally like 35 minutes or so, but I can do it in about 25 when I do 80 (which is more often than I care to admit).

Five minute drive/15 minute walk to the train station, Twenty minutes on an NJ Transit train, 10 minute wait at the station, 20 minutes at least on a another NJ Transit train, 5-10 minutes to get off the platform in Penn Station, 15 minute walk across town. An hour and fifteen minutes on a good day.

If I leave by seven, 25-30 minutes. If I leave after 7, 35-45 minutes. I try to get to work by 7:30 but when I'm up till 2 am posting to the RF or studying, I don't aloways make it. I voted 31-45.

I need to change my answer. I thought this was a poll asking how long it takes me to get started on my work when I get to the desk. I didn't realize we were talking travel time. :P

If that were the question, I would have to base it upon how many new posts were on the RF since I went to bed the night before.

10 minutes if I drive my car. 27 minutes if I ride my bike.

28 minutes if I make good time. 32 minutes on a really bad day. I love living in the sticks! :)

45-50 minutes in the morning and much worse going home. The sticks sound pretty good to me....

Yep. I'll agree with Urysohn. The sticks are the best.
20 minutes on a normal day. 25 if I get stuck behind a farm vehicle or school bus for a few minutes.

Well at least right no it takes me 0-15 minutes. When I first got this job, it was 2.8 minutes, then the company decided to remodel, now I have about an 8.7 minute drive. However, I'm moving in two weeks, and my frive will probably change to between 27.4 and 60.3 minutes.
99.47% of all statistics are made up anyway.

It would take 15-20 minutes, but I take the bus. It gives me 30+ minutes each way to read. :)
When I was self-employed consulting, I had a 30-second commute to my basement office. It was great! :P

If that were the question, I would have to base it upon how many new posts were on the RF since I went to bed the night before.
You sleep too!

27 minutes if the light is red, and 25 if it is green.

But that's just an internship
