5-10 minutes

The only problem I ever have is finding a parking spot on Ole Miss' campus

10-15 min against traffic since I live in the city. I'm spoiled. And I work from home a couple days a week so that's the shite.

but I also drive hours at a time for the accounts I handle in other cities so those days are turrible.

1.5 miles, 5 minutes for the last 31 years. For the entirety of those 5 minutes I laugh uncontrollably about city slickers who love all the things there are to do in their city. Like sit in their car.

Usually about 20 seconds from time I get coffee to getting my rear in the chair upstairs. If my wife is wearing some booty shorts I may or may not add a few seconds to that to look at her arse.

Moved from las colinas to grapevine and now it takes from 30 minutes to 1 hour or more, depending on how many fricking idiots decide to get in wrecks on 114. Idiots.

I leave my house and drive 2 minutes to a parking garage that's a 1/2 mile away. If there's a train sitting in the tracks, it sometimes takes longer.

45-ish minutes each way every day as best case scenario. Can be an hour fifteen on a rainy day.

It's worth it to not live in "real" Austin though.

It can be a pain in the arse sometimes. In the mornings, when it's not raining or snowing, it's about 20 minutes. You can tack on another 20 if there's any kind of weather and people forget how to drive.

In the afternoon it's anywhere from 20-30. If I see the interstate is backed up, I have a couple non-interstate routes that take a few more minutes but avoid the clusterfrick.

I'm not looking forward to the commute as winter moves in. Especially driving I-65.

I walk. It's a few blocks. I generally stop at a breakfast shop on the way.

I keep my company car in my slot in the parking lot. I have been told that some of the engineers think that I must sleep in the office because I never leave.

45 minutes - 1 hour each way, depending on the method I choose to take (BART, commuter bus, drive).

When I lived in the East Bay in a different lifetime, my commute to Mt View could be 35 minutes to 2.5 hours.

35 minutes through the county and across the top of Ross Barnett (old MS racist POS) reservoir. It's nice. I wish it was a tad shorter, but it isn't bad at all..

I live on an island, work on the mainland. The only problem I have is on the bridge connecting the two. Outside of that, the roads are flat and well maintained in winter. Sometimes you gotta drive 40 mph, but the traffic isn't bad.
