Tell us about that wonderous employer that pays you for your commute time, so that we may work there as well. And no cheating. If your employer has a "perk" that pays for an amount of public transport, that does not count. It's a perk. It can be taken away at any time and isn't part of the actual contract. It usually also doesn't pay for the entire amount regardless of where you live. It has a maximum or maximum "range". It usually doesn't pay for driving on your own if you choose to use your car. It is often money you can also use to pay your cell phone bill or somesuch, which means people that live closer can use more of it for other stuff rather than public transport. As the parent mentioned, short term contractors don't count. I'm talking employee, which is the relationship to work that most of us have. And I mean actual contractual negotiation of: OK you want to pay be $150k but I live in the sticks, it takes me 1.5 hours by car+train one way to work, we'll put into the contract that you pay X amount for car maintenance, Y for gas and Z for the train ticket indexed to inflation or I work 5 hours instead of the 8 otherwise agreed. If you find that employer, let me know.
