Like judging how good a driver is by the person with the longest distance a to b.

I mean I can say it's not quite as guaranteed to be bad. IE distance from A to B is inherently bad, Most distance driven COULD mean you made more stops and did more good.... or it could mean you took a horrible route, got lost and wound up crossing through the wrong state.

And here we have our employee of the year! He accidentally turned left instead of right, and ended up circumnavigating the entire globe. While most of you only use 2 miles to go from A to B, he used 24899. Isn’t that incredible?

We don't need a map to guide us.

Should it be snowing?

Hey, I've never seen the sun come up in the West?!
