Try spending two hours a day standing on a train.
Such a time sink.
Commuting on a Segway... doesn't qualify.
- mseebach 13y agoCommuting simply means travelling between your home and your workplace. The fact that many people impose a painful commute on themselves does not make a less painful commute any less a commute.
- adaml_623 13y agoI think if you look at the origin of the word commute you will find that it did actually emerge from the trip between suburbs and the city and hence a walk to work in the morning is not in the 'traditional' sense.
- jarek 13y agoDo you by any chance have details on that? I'm genuinely curious but with a brief search all I could find was a reference to Latin commuto which implies a "to change, to transform" meaning, I'm guessing applied to a change of environment or mindset from home to work.
