right. so she would have had to walk to the path (10 minutes), take the path to harrison from hoboken (probably about 20 minutes), and then she's 1.25 miles from her place of work (another 15 minute walk). so you're looking at a 15-30 minute drive, or a 45 minute train commute? you do the math on that, especially when she was working 12 hours (9am - 9pm) and would have had to walk to the harrison station at 9pm and then wait for a train....

really was not an option.

again, we looked into the options. she was not doubling her commute time on top of a 12 hour workday, when she'd be coming home after 9pm.
