No shortcuts to work

I love shortcuts. I sometimes think that 80 percent of my free-time is wasted on finding shortcuts for doing everything. Now, this isn't to say that I'm lazy, but rather, I'm a "fan of convenience". In any case, I've been wasting my gas, time and reputation for punctuatlity at work attempting to find shortcuts from my driveway to work. You see, the problem is that there is no route that can yield me anything better than 30 minutes of commute time (one way). This is despite the fact that my work is about 8 miles away. I've poured over maps, braved windy roads, and driven through shady neighborhoods to no avail. There simply is no shortcut. And that realy, really bothers me.
