My commute is 14-15 miles each way, but it's in London. So if I drove it everyday, I would be doing 150miles a week.

But since I work in central London, in the congestion zone, I only drive on nightshifts and Sundays, which accounts for at most 2 days per week.
The other days, I use the train, which costs about £8 per day.

So on average my commuting car mileage is about 60miles per week.

Ok so what about total time for the commute.

My daily commute takes 1hr 15m each way, so that's 12hr 30min per week. The joy of commuting in London. :sad:

I generally go into the office three days a week.  This totals:

60 miles on the Golf3
30 miles on a boat
36 miles on a train
12 miles on foot

in a total of around 12 hours, as it takes about 2 hours each way, mostly due to trains arriving at the boat just as the boat leaves.  :angry:

So if I was needed to be in the office five days one week I'd spend 20 hours just fooking commuting.  I'm pretty careful I don't need to go into the office more than three days a week.  :grin:
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.
