[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also I think people are not truly calculating door to door. They'll count the time they are on the metro only or only once they're on the highway [/quote]

People do this all the time! It's so annoying. My friend used to say she had a 30 minute commute all the time. I stayed with her for a week while our floors were getting refinished. Every morning she would leave at 7am to be at work by 8am. One day she was freaking out at 7:10am about how she was going to late for a meeting (8am) and couldn't even finish her cup of coffee.

This was last year. A couple weeks ago I saw her at a dinner party and she was saying "oh yeah, the commute's only about 30 minutes! It's great!" I guess it all depends on perspective. I would shoot myself if I had to drive an hour every morning and evening. Maybe that's why so many people lie to themselves about this? [/quote]

There's a difference between a commute being 30 minutes ON AVERAGE and needing to be at work by a certain time for a meeting.  My commute is 40 minutes on average but it could be well over an hour on a bad day. But I usually don't have to be at work by a set time. [/quote]
