It's a remote job. I get a small flatshare and do the Mon-Fri working thing. (Loads of people do this for on prem jobs because homes in London are small and/or pricey. You get the train in on Mon, stay till Fri, and go home to your big country house). Then I stop doing the commute because it's a remote job and this is obviously silly. Basically it seems like this whole thing rests on arbitrary rules set for no reason. I can't figure out how working for GitLab in a northern English town would work at all and why anyone would apply when they could rent a postbox (or even an entire flat) in London and come out way ahead. If the differences were a few grand it'd be different. It's more like half the money for living a couple hours north on a train.
