Early in my relationship with Ben, he explained to me his 20-minute rule.
Basically, in St. Louis,” he said, “If you can’t get somewhere within 20 minutes, then it’s probably not a place worth visiting.”
It just so happens that because of the second phase of a year-long highway shutdown, my daily commute downtown has become 35 minutes long ā€” further proof that work isn’t a place worth visiting.
