- dougmwne 5y agoI mean, that's a pretty harsh way to put it. It takes a very flexible lifestyle to be able to move 10 minutes from your office every time you get a new job. That is also likely to severely impact your finances. For some workplaces, it would be a financial impossibly to live that close for anything less than an executive salary. Often it's far more optimum to work remote if you want to minimize your commute.

- delecti 5y agoI think "get a job closer to your home" is a reasonable suggestion, even if that commenter was a bit blunt about it. In my most recent job search I avoided applying to positions that were further than I was willing to commute, even though they're in the same metro area.
