@voidlily: you should check us out at Staples SParX: http://www.staples-sparx.com/jobs/

jcsims: i looked at them but the commute really wouldn't be doable for me

damn commute

ruins so many interesting options

I commuted once. It was terrible.

same

@jrotenberg: the really bad thing with commuting is that you need to do that a lot, not once

sometimes every day

twice

depending on how you commute (e.g. train) you might even carve some high value working time (no interruptions) from it.

but I know that it quick becomes a hassle and is exhausting

i’ve definitely had a few decent coding sessions on BART

but they are the exception, not the rule

commuting is nice for writing docs 😛

My commute is sitting up, going into the next room, and sitting down.

Oh, yes, I’m showboating.

¬_¬ but also 😉

@akiva: lucky one, I need to take stairs to commute.

Good lord. The horror.

@akiva: Imagine the day when multiple parcels are delivered...

yeah a commute is never fun

I’m going to get a Kickstarter going to install escalators for you. This simply is inhumane.

audiobooks are my salvation for now

I actually like a train-based commute. When I lived in the PNW, I took the Sounder from Everett down to Seattle. One hour on the nose. Free wifi. Beautiful, water-front tracks. Sealions sunning themselves.

My commute is 25 minutes on a bicycle via a beautiful park ...

and yes, it's quite a lot of fun

Nice!

I could do a roundtrip bike ride before using the stairs. That would make them less offensive.

staples would be a caltrain commute, not bart

which is even less convenient

right

I used to take the train from Sunnyvale up to SF. It was like riding in some weird kind of industrial shopping cart. With no free wifi.

east bay to anything south of sf is pretty much going to suck

[somewhat related] I really amazes me that english has a word for “travel from/to home to/from work on a regular basis"

😄

german has, too.

german does not count… it has a word for everything

I think you mean Germanhasawordforeverythingandtakedeepbreathfirstbecausehellasyllables.

@samflores: there is no word for CD player
