Employment is a commitment. Understandability.... employment is a commitment that must be constantly negotiated with the commitments made to family and even moral responsibilities (like our creator). But relegating the employment commitment to a lesser value (like a hobby, sport, or trendy environmental concern)..... is a step towards unemployment.
You are way overboard there Mr. Dave. My post is about how I feel guilty when not riding to work. Also as a tangent, when the unusual opportunity comes where a part may need to be hand carried to another plant (Which is not my job BUT I have volunteered the use of my car before) makes it impossible when I ride. Kind of a small dilemma actually. I have been working here for
30 years (1984) since I was nineteen years old commitment? - I have been commuting to work for two years now .I am now making a commitment to ride out the rest of my possible 18 more years commuting by bike.
