I can't complain about my commute since it's all by Metro Rail, but when I walk past the office buildings a mile from my house to get to the station to go downtown to my office building, I wonder what the hell I'm doing. Why don't I work in the office building near my house? How awesome would it be to walk to work?
I often wonder if we all aren't just a little too specialized. If we just did a musical chairs thing, I bet we could all find good jobs close to our houses.
I come from the perspective of valuing my time with my family more than money, so I don't really understand people who choose to have long commutes so they can make a little extra money. Maybe I just haven't been offered enough cash.
