I’m assuming that most of you are from the US so probably using cars, but lemme know if you use trains, subways, buses, etc.
Me? Back when I was doing an internship I walked to a nearby station for 10 minutes then transited to another train line, which could be an instant or 20 minutes wait. After that I walked for 10 minutes to my work place. So it was probably about 40 minutes of commute. Of course, I live in tropical country so I’m drenched in sweat as I arrive in the office.
Fortunately every year my city’s public transportation seems to get better and as a result I barely needed to use cars.
Walk 2.5km from home to mini bus taxi rank. Wait for taxi to fill (15 passengers) and we drive 30km. Get off and walk through a mall to office. Takes about an hour total. Afternoons it’s just the opposite. Traffic doesn’t matter to South African Taxi drivers.
