1 hour 15 minutes each way, but you know what -- I don't mind. I get to live in a beautiful city along the coast in Massachusetts, and commute to a job I love in downtown Boston.
1 hour of that commute is on the commuter train, during which I work for part of and read or watch shows during the other. It also means my in-office hours are 9:15 - 4:15 since I finish the rest of my work on the train.
I tried working at home for three years and hated it. Even though I consider myself to be more on the introverted side, I got quite lonely in an empty house all day, and find it much more exciting to be at an office.
For what it's worth I previously had a job where I drove an hour and 45 minutes twice a week and _hated_ that. I would never do this commute if I had to drive instead.
