Look Ma, I'm a good example!

Way to go!!!

I ride to work on the occasions that I don't have to take a client somewhere. Commuting for me isn't very far - nothing is far away in the city I live in.

The funny thing is that I have had three "no shows" from clients who sat in the parking lot of the counseling center where I work waiting for my car to appear in the lot. I was inside the entire time, waiting for them. They didn't even bother getting out of their cars to check the office door to see if it was locked or not. bruiser, Your comment on inside parking made me smile. It has both advantages and disadvantages. No show=no pay!

Of course, the proof of the pudding is if David actually gets a bike and rides it... But my weekend employer has a pretty aggressive employee health program, it just might happen.

And Flybye, I've had similar problems with people automatically assuming that car=person there. I practically had to sit on the front step (in January) to convince the UPS guy to ring the doorbell and deliver my new computer 'cause the weather was so bad that DH took the car that week. I considered standing in the front window nekkid, but decided not to - after all we live across the street from an elementary school.
