10. Yes, some people DO drive that far!
It's a rare person that works within a mile or two of work these days.

I am currently driving 50 miles *each way* to a job. The job pays only $9.45/hour.

There are not many good jobs in a 15-mile radius of here. The coworkers at the distant job are more friendly and patient than at many jobs I have had in a closer radius to home.

I drive a car that gets good mpg but I'm worried about wear and tear on the vehicle.
