I'd rather walk 16 minutes alone than sit 16 minutes alone in a car

    Is it over 100 degrees during commute times for 4+ months out of the year?

    I like a walk and a bike ride, but I would also have to bring a garment bag with clothes to change into after showering at the office.

    There actually is a shower at the office, but with 30 people sharing 1 shower the line would suck.

    I mean nothing against walking in general, but when it's super cold or super hot, it's much nicer to spend that time in a climate-controlled interior than outside. Especially before I got a heat pump installed so I could actually get some breathable air at home in the summer, the car was the only AC I had access to.

    The 16 minutes also gets me about 20 kilometers away versus about a kilometer for the walk. I MIGHT get to the closest store in that time.
