I gad a couple coworkers that I had a convince that I still had a car, and furthermore no I don't need a ride home. The best responce so far has been someone assuming I got a dui and couldn't drive any more. I have a license and a car and I chose to do this with my free will. Other than a few weird assumptions I surprised at how positive everyone has been about the idea.

I'm beginning week four and still enjoying it, even now that it has become routine.

Does anyone else have any fun responses from coworkers?

Don't worry, after a few years the responses will subside a bit, I still have my employer commenting almost daily after work, "ride carefully", and I reply "I always do".
