I know enough to leave work at either 4pm or 7pm on days like this. Today, unfortunately, is likely to be a 7pm day.

I spent a month training for my previous job in Tysons Corner, VA. The entire training class kept wanting to go to D.C. on the weekends. I went once and had enough. The traffic was enough to make me want to rage quit life. I had a rental Kia Soul, which I wanted to use as a battering ram several times. Wouldn't have worked well.

I still drive the 15 minutes or so from the station to the house, but it's clear out in the suburbs - and the round trip (with parking) costs me about $15.

Worked here most of my life, made it a point to never EVER get a job that involved the beltway commute. Still alive, still happy.

I commute on the toll road every day, and going against traffic. So I'm good.

Rain. NoVa can be brought to a stop by some rain. It's absolutely ridiculous.

Had a job that took me around the beltway from 50(MD) to McLean. Quit that after 3 months. Probably not the best way to start a career but I got a job were I commute 15 minutes each way instead of 1:15 each way.

It's crazy when you realize that it's cheaper to spend $75 a week and the extra time that it takes to Metro than it is to drive downtown and pay for parking. Been there done that.

"caution Roadwork ahead. To avoid possible delays, use Canada.

It's $4 when I take the motorbike, and I get to use 395HOV, so thats my favorite.
Not today, though. Today, it's me and 100 wet tourists.

I'm already dreading 395 S because of the rain. I should just leave now.
