Looking back I cannot believe that 15 years ago I spend an hour sitting in the car most mornings before I got to work.
No way would I go back to that...
Yes, I agree that driving to work really sucks (especially through working class neighbourhoods ;-).
In my younger days, I'd get the job first, then rent nearby, close enough to walk to work.
Looking back I cannot believe that I used to routinely stay up gallivanting till 3:00 am ... then drag myself out of bed at 9:50
to arrive in the office puffing at 10:00 am ... while an older family man, residing in the scenic (not working class)
Blue Mountains,
diligently arose at 5:30 am for his two-hour train journey to arrive in the office two hours before me!
By the time I arrived, he'd done four hours work because he got
a lot done sitting in a comfortable regional train with his headphones and laptop.
We both found it hilarious.
As you might expect, he was also the first to leave in the afternoon, so he could
get home in time to spend some quality time with his young children.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
