4.0 - 4.5 hours of commuting every day? And I thought my 1.5 hours, 3 days per week was bad. I do not envy you.

I do not envy you.
- mikelbring 9y agoI came to comment about that too. I use to drive 2 hours total a day. Absolutely terrible. I hope you can fix that in the near future!
- ryandrake 9y agoWelcome to the Bay Area. I've made the conscious decision that I'm not willing to pack my family into a 1000 sq.ft. shoebox, which is all that's affordable anywhere near employers, so commute it will be.
- disgruntledphd2 9y agoTry to make your commute part of your workday? Even if you left at 7am, worked on the train, worked in the office till 4 then home at 6, it would make a big difference to your life. Source: had a 1.5hr commute in London (bus, tube, train, bus). 1.5 was best case scenario. I will never forget the sheer happiness I gained from changing jobs to a more reasonable commute.
- galfarragem 9y agoI got a non-STEM degree like that: 5 years with 4h of daily commute. I wouldn't wish it to my worst enemy if I had one.
- wjh_ 9y ago3 hours of daily commute for college. Can confirm. Not fun.
- johnward 9y agoI did the same and it's really, really stressful being in traffic for that long. Not to mention turning a 9 hour day into a 13. Working remote has really improved my quality of life now.
