Lets say that 30 minute cab ride cost an additional $40. If your job is paying you $8 an hour then you have to work an extra five hours for it. Taking the bus didn't cost you half an hour, it saved you four and a half.

Your job may be paying you $8/hr, but if you can be doing something to move up to a higher paying job, the value of that activity may well be >$8/hr

An $8/hr job is another great example of something that the simplistic "your time is worth $1000/hr" would imply you should never even do.
