How long is your commute?

[OnaTrek]

Call me crazy, but I am considering commuting to my next nursing job! (Still in school here, so I am just day dreaming) I live in NorthWest Florida where nursing jobs are a rare find, not to mention the low pay for Florida nurses. I actually commute now to Houston TX every other week for my flight attendant job. I am thinking about applying to some Level I and II hospitals out there, as a PRN, because I do have the benefits of stand by flying. I hope to work a day, two or three there and fly home. I do not want to move out of my paradise home..! :redbeathe

20 minutes, used to be ten, but mean people there. I'm Southwest.....thought Florida has lots of seniors...thought lots of jobs....small state?

[EmergencyNrse]

3.6 miles, 26 minutes by bicycle...

[GM2RN]

35 miles. It takes anywhere from 45 minutes to 2 hours depending on time of day. Seattle traffic can be brutal!! Oh and [b']$15/day for parking!![/b]

Dang!

In good weather, 20 minutes to one job, 45 minutes to the other.

Around 25ish minutes but an easy drive through the country, free parking BUT, 5-10 minutes to find a spot then it takes another 10 minutes to walk from parking to where I need to check in for work and then additional time to get to the floor I'm assigned to. Not complaining though:D.

~ 5-7 mins. plenty of free parking. That is one of the reasons I stay.....other options at least 1-1.5 hrs each way.

I travel about 30 miles each way. Travel time is usually about 35 minutes or so each way when I work my usual shift. When I end up in the heavier traffic times it can take up to an hour, but thankfully that's not too frequent.

[lady constance]

19 miles. 30 minutes... but i leave 40- 45 minutes early...cause of the sick/tardy policy..... cause i aint gonna hang because of failure to accommodate traffic patterns
