only once a week do I have to get up @ 6 ish to get to office for meeting for a 3 hour commute... later on when everythings hunky dory....just do everything via mail and phone....
For the new contract I am having to get up @ 6am, to be able to be here by 8 am (half an hour getting ready and the rest driving) I did the same when I was in London, but I stayed over every other night, - may do the same now.
I miss my sleep I couldn't move a finger this morning, I've never been a coffee person, but now am gradually moving away from the herbal teas in the morning to having and esspresso-Choc <sigh>
I was told I'll get used to getting up so early , but this never works for me, I never get used to it , even if I got to bed by 9pm
Get up at 7.30am. Train at 8.30am. Arrive at work 10am. Get home at 8pm
Some of you guys do really long (time wise commutes) and you live near London. I drove down today from cheshire to buckinghamshire in 2 hours (170 miles). There has to be something wrong when it takes some of you longer to do local(ish) commutes.
Who has the longest commute for the shortest distance?
The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

Who has the longest commute for the shortest distance?
Probably me. 10 minutes from my bedroom to the kitchen downstairs (but timings improved exponentially once the coffe was ready)
Sometime around 9, depends really on what time i fancy getting into work, though currently contemplating earlier so i can go to the gym before work but problem is i HATE mornings *is one of those you are best off not even saying hello to untill after midday..unless you like your head being bitten off*

I think you have to plan in so much contingency for the inevitable delays whether driving or taking the train. All transport in the SE is so completely fecked up
How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think
