    I feel very fortunate, because I just have to cross the street...3 min. I was thinking about how much time many people have to waste just to get to work...one guy in our company travels 2 hours each way, every day...4 hours.

    5 min with traffic. Takes me longer to walk from my car to the building than to drive there usually. I couldnt live/work in houston if i had any kind of significant commute time.

    45 minutes from Kingwood to Allen Parkway, but I take the park and ride so I'm only driving for about 10 minutes round trip. The rest of the time I just sleep on the way there and read a book on the way home.

    Approximately 10 miles each way...straight shot on 610 West.

    Takes about 15 minutes going to work and about 25-30 minutes going home.

    There is alot more traffic going home. :mad:
