Hey, it's a Whirler question I can answer!
1. When does everyone get up in the morning for work?
7-7:30am, begrudgingly...
2. If you drive to an office, how many miles is your commute?
12 miles each way -- State Hwy eastbound I have Mt Hood in front of me and the Columbia River on my right in the morning, and there is no commuter traffic. It's gorgeous every day. (And oddly, there are no lights or stop signs between my driveway and my workplace.)
3. How long is your work day?
8:30-5:00, but very flexible as long as it adds up to 40/wk.
Michele

Subject: RE: Questions about the work day for the Whirlers
I was wondering:
1. When does everyone get up in the morning for work?
** I have been arising at 3:30 a.m. I shower, feed the pets, prepare and eat breakfast and prepare and pack my lunch, perhaps a little time to read the newspaper while I await my carpool.
2. If you drive to an office, how many miles is your commute?
** My commute is 87 miles each way.
3. How long is your work day?
** I arrive at work at 6:30ish, but my workday officially is 7:00 - 4:00.
