Two hours from your office? Is this hyperbole? If you live two hours from your office and go in for three days per week, that's 2h per leg * 2 legs per day *

Two hours from your office? Is this hyperbole?
If you live two hours from your office and go in for three days per week, that's 2h per leg * 2 legs per day * 3 days per week = 12 hours per week on the road.
You were spending more than 12 hours per week in traffic?
The average commute in the United States is a little less than 30 minutes [1]. That's 5 hours per week for someone who works five days per week.

- apexalpha 5y agoI used to commute 1 hour one way pre Covid, so 10 hours per week. If I go into the office for only 2 days a week I could live twice as far from my workplace and still only commute 8 hours a week. I was meaning to say that even with 2 days in-Office per week it opens up possibilities regarding housing. I was spending 1,5 hours per day in a train, and walking to the station for 10 minutes or so, yes.
- llampx 5y agoThere are only so many hours in a day. Are you willing to wake up at 5AM to get to the office and be home at 8PM for 2 days a week?
