How does your daily commute to work look like? (lemmy.world)

I'm assuming that most of you are from the US so probably using cars, but lemme know if you use trains, subways, buses, etc.

Me? Back when I was doing an internship I walked to a nearby station for 10 minutes then transited to another train line, which could be an instant or 20 minutes wait. After that I walked for 10 minutes to my work place. So it was probably about 40 minutes of commute. Of course, I live in tropical country so I'm drenched in sweat as I arrive in the office.

Fortunately every year my city's public transportation seems to get better and as a result I barely needed to use cars.

Hop on my bike and ride east into town. Most of the first two miles is along a stretch where the rightmost full lane is reserved for busses and bicycles; I don't even touch the handlebars. Then tsca short stretch on a regular bike lane and over the river into downtown, where I ride in actual traffic for another mile. All told it's 4.2 miles and takes between 25-40 minutes, depending on traffic, weather, and whether I stop to dick around on my phone in the way.
