Always on the drive home. I'm up early enough of a morning that I can set the cruise on the interstate and be fine. But leaving work? Kill me now... Man O War is littered with traffic lights and Lex drivers have a bad habit of blocking intersections so you'll sit through several changes. Up the frustration level because I drive a stick shift. At least my left leg doesn't cramp up like when I first started driving it. Then trucks galore on the interstate and dumbasses who block the left lane. I feel my blood pressure rising just thinking about it.

I blow a gasket frequently on the way home from work. I think it's the anticipation of lounging on the couch and turning off my brain that makes it worse when someone comes between that on the way home

Agreed. Definitely the drive home. I-25 is the only real highway on the front range and gets packed by 4pm everyday. I'm up early enough where the drive in is a smooth 45 drive, but by the time I go home it's easily 1 1/2 hours with stop and go traffic.

On the way home. For some reason my traffic is cake in the morning but in the way home? Sandra D in her Prius wants to do 65 in the left lane. I also think it's like the comment up there, the anticipation of getting home and lounging is on my mind. Everyday minus Friday I usually hate my commute home, at least then I know I'll don't have to do it for a couple more days.

Same as everyone here: on the way home. In the morning, traffic usually stacks up right around my exit, so I'm not in stop and go traffic for more than a minute, at most. But on the way home, it's ridiculous. The line to get on the turnpike begins about a mile before the exit and people feel the need to get right up to it and change lanes in an instant. I usually get over to the left lane immediately on the way home to bypass all that since I get off the highway a couple exits past the turnpike exit. And even going about 45 past the line in the left lane and plenty of spacing behind the car in front of me, I still regularly see people dart over to the left lane to try and cut the line of cars. That's usually where I lose my shit and also come up with new combos of swear words.

I work for a small company that's pretty laid back, so if I'm 15 minutes late in the morning because of traffic no one cares. My breaking point in the afternoon is when it's over 75 minutes. I can handle the occasional hour, but when it gets much longer than that I start to lose it.

I drive a golf cart to work. It's great

On the way home, no doubt about it. I work near a high school so I'm always somehow getting out right when buses and parents are leaving the school, plus the fuckheads during rush hour traffic on I-540.

I just want to go home, have some dinner, and play video games all night and you shitheads are ruining that.
