How to Ease Cost of Commuting

How to Ease Cost of Commuting - AOL Money & FinanceInc.
GOOGLE ,Inc said it has seen an uptick in the number of employees using its van service, which travels as far as 60 miles to ferry commuters, says spokeswoman Sunny Gettinger. The company runs more than 150 shuttles a day for about 1,200 riders. But it's public employers who are moving to four-day weeks.
