Drive my Volvo 360GLT to work 5 days a week (normal week) sometimes 7days a week.
2. Do you enjoy it?
Yes!
3. If no, what is wrong with your commute? If yes, what do you enjoy?
I enjoy driving full stop, I like the route to work as it is part rural and part inner town/city.
4. How long do you commute for?
10-15mins (or 20-30 mins if sharing commute)
5. Would you consider shared commutes?
Yes (as long as I am the driver!) I often do share commutes to and from work with colleagues
6. Is it expensive?
Affordable (Even more so if sharing commutes as fuel money is agreed)
7. Does it tire you? Do arrive at work tired?
No - depending on time of driving, If on early shift starting at 7:30 then yes - as there is more traffic on the road, so more stop/start driving.
8. If yes,
How does it affect your work?
It takes me longer to wake up and concentrate.

I'd give you a response but I don't really commute! As soon as I walk outside the door I'm at work as I drive to the quarry to pick up the first load then drive to the customer, then back to the quarry then back to another customer...you get the picture

Not exactly brain surgery but it pays the bills and some of those quarries get nice and slippy in the mud for some sideways 3.5 tonne fun

I wonder how large statistical error I could be in there, living in Finland and having a job which includes driving 300-1000km to varying destination, usually to place where public transport is hardly ever heard of with several hundreds of kilograms equipment with me. Somehow I think that I would not qualify to answer as being rather anti public transport material and when I would put out statement that 8 hour drive with my car is less tiring than same time on public transport would defineatly make me invalid data
