One of the things I disliked about my former job (besides the Nazi boss, the hours and being oncall 24×7) was the commute. Now, granted, we don’t live in a huge city so I know it’s tons worse other places. Still, here it was bad enough when I was working. These days, I avoid rush hour like the plague.
Except for today, since I had to take Suzanne to the airport, so she could fly home to Chicago (bye Suzie, we miss you, we had fun while you were here!).
Today, I got to re-experience rush hour. We couldn’t even pull out onto the main road by our subdivision because the traffic was backed up past our subdivision entrance. A nice man let me in, and then we inched down the road for a while, trying to get to the interstate. The interstate did flow pretty well for the most part, but the other main road out to the airport (Lakeland Drive) was pretty backed up. I had thought that our trip to the airport would take 20-30 minutes, but it ended up taking about 35-40. I think Suzie got there in enough time, but I hated to be running late. Traffic. Gotta hate it! 🙂
You think that’s bad…since the storm, some days it takes me between 30 and 45 minutes to get to work. I only have 10 miles to travel. I hate traffic too!!!! And most mornings, the radio stations talk too much.
