  1. I’ve been transferred to a new store closer to DC for my new promotion starting on Sunday and I gotta say: now that I have to deal with the traffic repercussions, I firmly believe that all construction on the metro line should immediately be halted as not having to stop for construction workers would shave ten minutes off my drive easily.

    1. @zeldatra Promotion! Yeah! Hopefully construction won't take forever. When I had to commute about 30km to work I had often construction work on the Autobahn, which made the traffic so bad at rush hour that it added 30 to 45 minutes to the commute and forced me to start work at 6 AM to get around all of this. Even then the construction added 10 minutes to a 15 minute drive (under good circumstances and at about 140km/h and traffic signals.)

      1. @adiwan I’m hoping they’ll be done soon but also they’ve been working on this metro expansion since I was 12 so I’m starting to think it’s a mob front and they’ll never be done.

        1. @zeldatra Ooof. That's criminal indeed.
