I live in the city in a neighborhood. My employer pays for my monthly pass. I work Downtown. It costs almost $250 per month just to park. Now add in gas and wear and tear on the vehicle and that is huge savings. Plus, it only takes 5 minutes longer to take the bus door to door; 25 minutes living 4.5 miles from work. I catch the bus into town 1/2 a block from my house. The bus drops me off right across the street from my house on the way home. Taking the bus is less haste and at times entertaining.
If you left a little sooner you could walk to work and still have time for a coffee when you got there.
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.” ― Samuel Adams
