Which service is this? Can't find online.

We stayed over night a few times and made the commute (her to K st and me pentagon) and that was the end of that dream. We setteled in Brookmont but we take dates in Annapolis every other month or so.
Pentagon? Yes that was cray cray.

I also have left a car at NC with no problem.
This. Can you telework on Fridays?
OP here. I can telework on Fridays.
Glad for you for Fridays! I've had two coworkers try Annapolis-DC commutes and both quite in less than a year.
Were they living in Annapolis and working in DC? If so, that's about twice as long as the reverse (which OP is doing).

I knew a secretary in our office who commuted from Calvert County to DC, and she eventually found work closer to home. It was too much of a grind.
If such a bus does not exist for OP's situation (DC to Annapolis), how about moving to Annapolis? Most people would love to have a job there.
If there's no coach bus, I wouldn't do it especially if your job is sedentary. Otherwise you will be sitting all day long.
Won't the coach bus have to sit in the huge 495 delays?
