This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I live 20 minutes of highway from my job, which is in an industrial area with absolutely no pedestrian infrastructure.

Feels bad man.

Yup, same for me, but 30 min and my company is at the top of a big hill.

Feels bad. I might give it a try because there's a train that'll take me halfway there, but that hill isn't going anywhere...

Idk, an hour on an ebike is kinda long...

[–] joostjakob@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Oh I thought you were worried about the hill. I do 40 minutes myself and prefer it over any other option

It's just that it's 25 miles away, so even with an ebike, it would be quite a long ride (probably 2hr w/o ebike).

But think about the speed you'd get on the way home!

Also I grew up on a bluff, I had to go down a big hill and back up twice every day. After a summer of going it I was powering straight up a monster hill every day. It's daunting for a few weeks though.
