Your missing an option. "I never leave home" As far as commuting to work, I don't. I work at home. All my time spent in the car, is to get away from work/home, so it's not really commuting, just aimless driving to get away from work. -Lee perl digital dash (in progress)	[reply]
Re^2: Missing an option by Anonymous Monk on Feb 02, 2006 at 22:37 UTC
"I never leave home" Well, if you're already home, you can't "go home" until you leave. And if you never leave home, you never go home, either. So the correct poll option for you would be: "I never go home". :-)	[reply]

being unemployed gives certan advantages. one being a rather short and cheap commute into the kitchen. if i had an actual job it would be (as it has been in the past) by bicycle.	[reply]

Muenster, the place where I live, is famous for the many bikes everywhere, it often looks like in Amsterdam or Beijing, but for quite some years I mostly move around on inline skates, except when the streets are icy like this week. Different generations, different transportations: my grandfather always walked to the nearby factory, my father used his own car for decades, then started using the train. Now with increasing oil prices and taxes, car pools will probably get more popular in the near future. _{fraktalisman keeps rolling}	[reply]
Commute is hardly the word... by jonadab (Parson) on Jan 29, 2006 at 13:01 UTC
It's about a six-minute walk. I love living in a small town.	[reply]
Re: I commute via: by nothingmuch (Priest) on Jan 29, 2006 at 08:13 UTC
By carpool, occasionally with a 20 minute walk added. I tried biking one day, took me two hours. Oh well... -nuffin zz zZ Z Z #!perl	[reply]

Combined bike and train. Bike to train station, get on train, change trains, get off train, bike to office. (5km ridden) Heading home is a bit different, owing to restricted bike access to trains during rush hour. Bike to train station, get on train, get off train just before central station, bike home. (12km ridden) On the up-side, bikes cost nothing extra. On the down-side, you cannot take them onto trains travelling in the peak direction during peak periods. -Reality might not get out of Beta today. (O.Timas, "Bot")	[reply]

Usually, by private car to one train station, by a commuter line (Shoreline East)to a second train station, by a second commuter line (Metro North) to Grand Central, and by subway to (roughly) a block from my workplace. emc " When in doubt, use brute force." — Ken Thompson	[reply]
Re: I commute via: by DrWhy (Chaplain) on Jan 30, 2006 at 23:10 UTC
Even though I live in the big city now, the public transport here sucks, so it's a couple hours on the highway 4 days a week for me and a day of telecommuting. --DrWhy "If God had meant for us to think for ourselves he would have given us brains. Oh, wait..."	[reply]

Re: I commute via: by gloryhack (Deacon) on Feb 01, 2006 at 01:02 UTC
No commute for me; I'm self employed and work at home, thanks to Perl and the e-commerce phenomenon. Gotta love it! I don't own a car any more (don't want one) and even if there were public transportation in our dinky little town I wouldn't use it, so if I had to commute it'd be on foot. That is, after all, why we have those long things below our ankles :-)	[reply]
