Or just buy enough bread for one day. Good bread (without a shitload of additives) only last a single day anyway. Just get fresh bread each morning.
So get up early, drive to the store, purchase a days worth of bread, drive home, drop it off, drive 45 minutes to an hour to work, work 8 hours, drive another 45-an hour home, and make sure to poll the family to see who wants bread for the next day because we'll be out again and I don't want to wake them up at 5:30 am to ask.
What a completely rational solution that doesn't waste time or gas at all!!!
OR -hear me out- be ok with less than perfect bread.
Gonna have to think this one over.
Get up at normal time, walk or cycle to nearest bakery (3 minutes), buy bread, cycle to work (5 minutes), have delicious bread for breakfast and lunch at work, cycle home.
You have time to live 45 minutes away from work (WTF) but not 5 minutes to pick up bread?
The nearest bakery is almost a 30 minute walk. To live closer I'd need to triple my income to afford a home.
Yes, I live far from the office (which is at a hospital) but I'm technically a work from home position because they give me a laptop and phone and I'm only required to come in every couple months. I work with hospice patients in their homes, so I have to drive to their houses with a trunk full of supplies that can't be reasonably packed into a single bag for other types of alternative travel. Plus, living in a Chicago suburb means going to work in sub zero to single digit weather, sometimes severe storms, and life stressing heat. A car and travel is mandatory for my job.
It would be beautiful if I could access a bakery and be out in 5 minutes, but it's not an option. So I live the apparent tragedy of less than ideal sandwiches lol .
