Since it has recently come to become a major personality trait. I can't help but notice the bullshit of 20-40 minute commutes in traffic being "normal". Good public transportation, smart mixed use development, and generally reducing car dependence could be a very large factor in mitigating the pain of this employment. I did appreciate the author mentioning how tired they are after moving for 6.5 hours straight. I worked 3 years in the service industry as a food runner, I still remember my busiest shift being a 5 hour lunch on Memorial Day when we had 3/5 runners not show up. Easily the most chaotic (and profitable) shift I've ever worked. I did ~35k steps in the 6 hours I was working, while carrying comically large food trays around half the time. But, I almost made more money/hr than I currently do as a senior software engineer in the Bay Area, lol.
