Out here in Maine it’s pretty common to have to travel for work. All of the jobs are in or around Portland, but you can’t fucking afford to live where you work so many people have to live further north and travel south for work everyday. It’s the ideal environment for remote work, but fucking boomers run everything so they expect you in the office everyday.
Work from home is the best. Apparently the office that I used to work in has been closed down and I’m not actually sure where in the town the new one is, so I couldn’t go into the office even if I wanted to.
I’ve been working at my job for over a year now and I still haven’t seen the office. Working from home has its perks but most days I forget what a human face looks like.
One hour commute each way 💀 Bruh that is brutal, waste of life. My commute takes 15 mins
Yet another reason to decry our automobile based society. Working or schooling at anything more than a mile out is a ridiculous notion.
that’s 1 hr back and forth. if so 30 mins each is better than what most people deal with.
Mine’s ~50 minutes each way, at least it’s on a bus so I can read or watch videos. Still sucks

I have in theory 2 hours bike commute per way… Though I don’t go office that often
