my former place of employment is literally 100 yards from my house.



this was good/bad



Good: when i went out partying the night before a morning shift i could literally roll out of bed and walk to work



bad: you are always the first person they call if they need an extra person. And you cant lie about being busy or not home when they call because they can see my car in the driveway lol

if I was sitting in traffic for a hour a day I would want to be in a nice comfortable automatic transmission car with good heat and good air conditioning
