Commute Question: Seattle (Cap Hill maybe) to Fort Lewis...
I'm about to start working at Fort Lewis outside of Tacoma and I'd really like to live in a cool part of Seattle rather than some suburb of Tacoma filled with Army guys. How crappy of a commute would I be dealing with? I'll be a platoon leader so I'm not the bosss, and I can't afford to **** off my boss too often by being late...

Re: Commute Question: Seattle (Cap Hill maybe) to Fort Lewis...
I totally understand what you mean about living near both the bases, Lewis and McChord.
HOWEVER, there are some very, very cool lofts in downtown Tacoma.
When I was a Pilot at McChord, downtown Tacoma was a crap hole, but now, it's really changed.
As far as your commute from Seattle to Lewis, don't do it!!!
You are Dan 4.2, well, I'm a Dan 4.2 owner too!
Are you new to the Puget Sound area?
Let me know what you decide.
Later,
Dan

Re: what would the hours be??
Well I'd be leaving Seattle early in the morning probably no later than 5:00 am to be on post by 6:00, and I'd be driving home around the typical time-5:00 pm to 7:00 pm. I've checked the live traffic checker on the WSDOT website and it doesn't look too bad. But a random car wreck once a week would screw me if it slowed me down too much.
