    Epidural replied to ftrrn13's topic in New Jersey

    Can't comment on the NJ to NYC commute, but my work commute has been about 45 minutes for more than ten years. I work twelve hour shifts. I don't have to deal with a lot of traffic. I don't have to worry about child care. I am finally starting to get...
