This is probably not news to anyone who drives in the city, but a new report by Inrix revealed that Boston’s 2023 traffic has been ranked the fourth worst traffic in the nation and the eighth worst in the world! Ahead of us is NYC, Chicago, and LA in the U.S.
According to the report,
I had a friend who lived on Long Island and worked in Manhattan.
He told me that when his job started at 6 am he had to get up at 4 am to make sure he got to the city by 5:30 am.
When they changed his start time to 8 am, he had to get up by 4:30 am.
A 3.5 hr commute is not acceptable for any life. Also, a 4am wakeup is horrible too. What could your friend possibly need so bad in New York?
A job.
I know folks who live in Pennsylvania and commute to the city.
I just hope it was one of those high paying, once in a lifetime jobs.
Civil service job with a 25 year pension and test based promotions. Strong Union benefits.
