How far do you commute to work?

30 miles one way for me, and I'm one of the closer ones. Most of our nurses commute 50-70 miles one way.

I hate driving. I'm lucky, it takes me only 7 minutes door to door. :)

Good luck!

30 minutes one way now.

There's one woman i work with who commutes 2 hours. I can't imagine the paycheck being worth it, considering plenty of it is ate up by fuel for the car.

Wow! So I guess that the hospital that's an hour drive isn't too bad after all!

Thanks again.

I commute about hour away so 45-50 miles one way it dont bother me I like to drive and gives me a little while to relax and listen to music.

12 miles = 20 minutes for me

depends on which facility in the system i'm starting at. minimum of 43 miles. a clinic i go to is about 55 miles. office is little over 60 miles. there are times when i start farther away than that, but not often.

Five miles and five minutes sounds like a good commute to me.

How about 5 miles and 5-10 minutes depending on how you catch the red light?

I've worked at places both near and far (eight hour shifts), the farthest was probably a 45 minute drive.

It would seem to me, that it is all about what you as a person will tolerate; versus what you want in life/a job...i.e., if you don't want to spend 4 hours a day in commute, in your car...then don't. If you don't mind..and a hospital gives you what you want, go for it. It's all about where your priorities lie. When I was young/single had nothing better to do...a 1.5 hour commute in a parking lot was okay...a drag, but okay. Now, with 2 young kids and things that need to be done...family time etc..this would not fly. All depends on YOU.

17 miles and a 30 minute ferry ride.

Total time - about 45 minutes in the morning to work

and about an hour home due to more traffic
