[QUOTE="Intech, post: 1308080, member: 18497"] I am the closest to work that I have ever been. 14 miles. Over the last ten years the growth in the area has made the commute seem longer, but it still only takes me 20 minutes unless I get caught behind school buses. I have also had a 75 mile commute at two times in my life. One job working in Washington D.C. That commute sucked. The job sucked. Didn't take long to get out of there. Dropped to 20 mile commute with no highway. Then we moved to New York. 75 miles, but all back roads. Damn deer were the problem. Hit three of the damn things in three years. That commute was nice even if it was long. Never bad traffic and a couple different routes to choose from. One through a state park. The DC commute was the only one I hated. That added 3 to 4 hours of stress to the workday. I am 1.5 years out from semi-retirement, so I am looking forward to not having much of any commute working towards none! If your doctor is telling to leave a job that is something you should really consider. Stress related health issues can be invisible right up until they really cause bad stuff. Good luck with your decision. [/QUOTE]
