> Commuting on a crowded subway is exhausting personally
Honestly I find all types of commuting exhausting in different ways, except possibly a medium-to-long trip on a nicer train, where I can use my laptop (mostly) how I would in a hotel room.
It will probably never happen, but in my view the next major worker's rights advancement should be some kind of amelioration of the commute factor, either by employers or the government. It's probably more than half the reason I left my last job.
I've always believed that making things 'feel more fair' tends to motivate at least some workers to put in extra effort more enthusiastically.

- slfnflctd 8y agoI wouldn't expect it any time soon (except on specially regulated roadways, which hopefully there will be a lot of), but I tend to agree that in the long run, full automation is the ultimate answer to the commuting issue. Safety first, though.
