Like it or not, everyone's a Taxi Driver

You know, most people never gave much thought bout how much time they actually spend driving to work. I know it's something unavoidable, unless you stay at your workplace which is of course kinda sad. Anyway, I was thinking about it this morning while driving and out of curiousity when I reach my office, I did a simple calculation of the amount of time I spent on the road in a year.

30 mins to work, 30 mins back
1 day = 1 hour
1 week = 5 hours
1 month = 20 hours
1 year = 240 hours

Wahliao, 240 hours? Aint that like 10 days straight of driving non-stop? This whole thing got me even more curious so I decided to find out how much time I waste just driving to work till I marry a rich chick till I retire.

Considering that I started work at the age of 22 and am gonna retired at 55 (unless I strike lotery and retired earlier) that means I'm gonna work for 33 years...which roughly translates to...






7920 hours!! = 330 days!!!

OMFG it's like driving for 330days NON-STOP. That's close to A YEAR of sitting in the car and getting caught in the jam. Like that I might as well be a Taxi Driver!! Somore got chance to overcharge famous blogger from Singapore. =P

That's it, I'm gonna call up the Union and get a petition up in place for 2 working days per week. =)
