A question. Your job takes 11 hours out of your day roughly. I assume you only work 7.5 or 8 hours like is standard. Does that mean you have a 1,5 hours each way commute (3 hours total)?
So you spend 15 hours a week, or 70 hours a month commuting?
Maybe you should move closer to work? Or work from home a few days a week if your job allows. I have a 5 minutes each way commute. I don't understand the voluntary 1.5 hour commute.
- Domenic_S 15y agoI have a similar situation. I live in the far East Bay and commute to San Jose, about 3 hours round trip. Sometimes I get lucky and leave early enough to make it a 1 hour trip -- being on a huge campus with nobody around at 7am is an interesting experience. I'd be living in SJ, but I just bought a house out here so there's some legwork to be done.
- Frostbeard 15y agoI actually live only 10km away from where I work, and my commute amounts to less than an hour per day. I'm at the office by 0700 and I leave sometime after 1700. My work situation deviates significantly from a programmer's "standard" in a lot of respects, unfortunately. I do get paid for overtime at least, but I'm beginning to question whether it's worth it.
