workaday Wednesday

Yesterday I learned that my boss has a 40 minute commute (or rather, I learned that my boss *says* they have a 40 minute commute, but in the absence of other information, I’ll go with it).

This was only surprising because — based on previous comments — I thought their commute was MUCH longer, like an hour-plus. MY commute is anywhere from 30 to 45 minutes, depending on traffic. It’s not my favorite thing in the entire world, but it’s a choice I’ve made and it’s working okay.

Of course, I tend to round up when I’m estimating driving times, and if they are rounding down, or giving best-case scenario timing, it’s entirely possible their commute is indeed significantly longer than mine. But it was an eye-opening moment nonetheless.
