Travelling over 60 kms to my office that totals 5 hours daily makes me wonder how much you people travel to your workplaces.

Maybe we can have a poll on this?

I live in bangalore and work as a software engineer for my livelyhood, if that interests you.

How boring! you are missing much pleasures of the traffic then. Like moving in the hot sun at a pace where a snail can overtake you. Being sandwiched between two monster trucks figuring a way out alive. Trying to predict which direction the auto ahead will turn. Watching out the road so that will not you put your leg into a hole when you stop and many more...:D

70kms from myplace to Bangalore then 1km further to work total 71kms. time taken 2hrs 30 mins.
Yep Missing traffic jams can now be considered as "sin".. It would also help "increase your vocabulary". Also you learn that what Lara Croft does in her games is absolutely NOTHING when compared what people do to just catch an ordinary bus...

ahh, my life is so simple and nice. 5 hrs??????? 7hrs??????? damn and i use to ***** about my situation. if would have to be on the roads for so many hours, i would have just moved! it takes me and hour minutes to get to work, and another 40 minutes to get back -- so thats one hour of sleep to get to work + 40 minutes of reading...

For me it's around 40 minutes to go to office at the technology hub of Kolkata (sector-V, salt lake) from my home. From the office car, I noticed the distance from home to office is around 14kms. So 14kms up, 14kms up, totals upto 28kms daily.:D
