the commute was a MAJOR factor in my decision to leave my last job. add to that the insanity that it cost just as much to drive & park as it did to take public transpo!!! lose-lose situation. It just wasn't worth it. I now have a 25-minute drive opposite most traffic, and FREE parking. :-)

substitute a transfer (or 2) on the Metro (subway) for commuter rail in the sentence above, this sounds JUST LIKE my previous commute into DC.

also forget about grabbing a quick lunch if you work near the mall or any of the attractions.
