I only go to client co on a Monday. It was a lovely quick and quiet journey on the jubilee line thanks to school hols.

If you drive, why not get to your lodgings or B&B late on Sunday night, when there's next to no traffic, and breeze in to clientco as fresh as a daisy the next morning, like me?Originally posted by Pip in a Poke View PostNow there's a vote winner for any political party...
I didn't get in here until 10.10 am after a 4 hour nightmare commute.
I can barely function so at 4:10 pm, after all of 6 hours in which I've done v. little, I am now going to slip (hopefully unnoticed) out the door.
Or instead of driving, do you have a masochistic urge to endure public cattle trucks every day?Last edited by OwlHoot; 23 October 2017, 15:53.

Abolish Monday mornings and Friday afternoons.

So if no-one worked Mondays your commute hell would happen on a Tuesday instead.
Solution? Abolish commuting. Everyone works from home and the government introduce a home worker tax, because they can.
If the company insists workers have to commute and work onsite, the government introduces an onsite worker levy, because they can.
