How Long is your Commute to Work/School?

[bmacavanza]

5 mins by car to work

[jut703]

About 40 min in the morning from Pasig to Makati. Without any traffic, around 10-15 min lang. Pag commute mga 1 hr 10 min.

Back in college, about 20-30 min from Pasig to Katipunan. Then it's either smooth sailing from Katipunan to the parking or another half hour if makasabay ko grade school/high school. Pag commute, 1 hr.

Pansin ko a lot of the people here live really near their work ah.

Alabang to UST, average 1 hour
The fastest I could do is about 30 minutes, late at night just before the trucks come
once there are trucks, I could take more than an hour
I have never taken more than 1:40 to get to school

I noticed that too. It's good that a lot of people live near work.

]Workers with long journeys to work 'worry more'

- 40% of commuters who travel for more than 3 hours a day worry for much of the working day
- But just 28% of those with short commutes worry
- Morning commute is the most hated part of the day
- People with long commutes tend to be more tired and experience 'less happiness'

Cutting your daily commute could be the key to happiness, researchers believe. Forty per cent of people who commute for more than three hours per day ‘experience worry’ for much of the day. In contrast, only 28 per cent of people with commutes of less than ten minutes are regularly worried.

Some 40% of people who commute for more than three hours a day 'experience worry' for much of the day, compared to 28% of those with short commutes

The survey, conducted for the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index - an assessment of the health an happiness of U.S. residents, also revealed that people with very long commutes tend to feel more tiredness and less enjoyment during their working day.

The researchers found that when people report their levels of enjoyment of each of the activities in their daily routine, the morning commute comes last, Priceonomics reported.

Commuting is also detrimental to people’s happiness as workers with long commutes tend to have less time for socialising with family and friends.

However, it is not only our happiness that can be compromised by a long commute.

Lengthy journeys to work can also play havoc with our health – commuters suffer from more recurring back and neck pain, sleep less well, take less exercise, and eat less home-cooked food than those who do not commute.

The news comes shortly after it was revealed that Britons typically risk serious injury 32 times during their weekly commute and 1.7 million have had to take time off work after getting hurt.

Accidents most commonly occur due to crossing roads without looking properly, running down escalators and eating on the move. Other hazards include jumping onto a bus or train as the doors close, which 40 per cent of commuters admit to doing, and nipping into the road to overtake slow walkers, which 39 per cent do. Commuters also confess to waiting in the middle of the road for traffic to clear and 35 per cent say they duck and weave through crowds.
The average commuter takes more than 1,600 risks which could result in serious injury a year, the report revealed. Train commuters are most at risk at 8.29am because this is when major stations are at their busiest. Women take more risks commuting than men - 35 per week - and workers in Manchester top the list of biggest risk takers – they take 48 risks per week, according to the research by insurance company LV

0 - sa bahay lang kasi palagi hehe

5 hours by cage pag may client sa central luzon.

45 minutes to an hour in the morning. An hour, to an hour and a half in the evening. My daily route is around 40kms. If i have to go to worksites, i can easily do over 100kms in a day and this is just going around the Metro.

I'm lucky because i have a car. I really feel for our employees who have to commute from the south and perennially flooded like Malabon.

35-40 minutes. thanks to the southwest provincial bus terminal na 20 minutes tops lang noon nung wala pa.

30 minutes in the morning, around 6:30am... Then an hour in the afternoon, around 4:30pm, but another route....

[tr1ck5h07]

commute ba kayo going to schoo/work or drive?

[Lew_Alcindor]

Pag four wheels gamit, mas matagal pa ang pag idle ng makina at pag aantay kay misis kesa sa mismong byahe. Pag motor, less than 5 mins. Pag lakad mga 15 mins.

another setback are the gears you have to put in and the risk of getting athlete's foot if you don't want to wear waterproof footwear kung rainy.
