I commute to Upper Marlboro and I am having a hard time dealing with the rising gas prices. I would like to know how other commuters are dealing.

I heard that by summer the gas prices could be near $5 a gallon. I can't even think about paying double what I do now each month. I am interested in the alternatives.

What's your stories and thoughts and feelings? TIA :flowers:

Lexi,

You are a state employee correct? :confused:

No need to answer that out in the open, but if so, then start applying for other jobs closer to home, they are popping up everywhere, if not, sorry for the assumption.

I am interested in knowing more about the commuter bus option.

How much does it cost?

How long does it take in comparison to driving?

How are the people?

Is there a bathroom?

Does anyone know about the ones that travel along Rt 4?

TIA

I did that commute from Waldorf to DC for a year. The time, the traffic, the aggravation, all of it, was hard, 36-years, no way. :boo:

I get annoyed sitting in a little back up in Hughesville.

Back when I was doing it, it wasn't so bad and I was in a car pool...It got really bad toward the end just before I retired...

aps45819: Aren't there some programs that pay govt. workers to use public transportation?

Yes there are and it is an excellent plan....
