I"m retarred, and use the vette for an occasional call, so maybe a 22 gallon fillup will last 6 weeks or so....
wife works mostly from home, maybe 7k miles/year for her....including personal travel... gas hits 4 bucks, she going to have to add to her rates, no question.....

Retired union construction pipefitter here. Got to go where the work is in our territory. We have a large territory and I sort of lived in the middle. Most jobs were about 20-25 miles each way but I had one as close as 1mile and another at 100 miles!

I've been working from home for 10 years and running. I would work in an office again if I had to, but doubt that's going to happen.

4.2 miles.
Commute usually takes 9 minutes if there is no train passing through town. My best was 6 mins at a slightly illegal pace. |

I walk from the bedroom to my office. Sometimes in my underwear. OK, most of the time in my underwear.
