1.5hr commute.

[Archaic2021]

What is the longest commute you guys have had.

Accepted a new job for an additional 20k per year. Full benefits.

Con...it's an extra 24 minutes away. Already commute 1 hr, this is gonna be 1hr 24min.

We could move, but with housing not wanting to pull that trigger yet. Trade off gonna be longer days, but now I work about 10 weekends out of the year, new job...0.

[xbluexhawkx]

Absolutely not lol

On my current project I drive 10hrs one way to my rental apartment that I stay at for 10 days at a time and commute to and from work from there

But it’s only a 10min drive from the rental apartment to work once I’m out here

Then drive 10hrs back home after 10 days

Longest commute to an office was about 40 minutes....was all highway and I was driving out of the city while 95% of people were driving in.....never hit any traffic. Hated it though, just felt like a waste of time...especially when it would snow.

Work from home now. I have to drive to the jobsites 2-3x a month and they're about 1.5-2 hours away. I get reimbursed mileage so I really don't mind and since I work from home, it's nice to get out. I leave around 530am and get home around 7pm. I have to drive into Atlanta, like damn near downtown though and that fukking sucks.

[MikeLowrrrey]

Were you desperate for the extra $20k?

[Archaic2021]

How much do you make a day? and is that the total commute time or just the time it takes you to go to your house from work?

Salary is 95k. Plus bonuses. SO...365 a day ish. Plus 10 to 15% of salary bonus each year.

1hr 24 minutes one way.

[redwine91]

My commute is 1.5hrs one way. So three hours a day driving = 15 hours a week

[300Lane1]

That's a no for me dawg. 3 hours RT?

Absolutely not.

[Destor]

just lol @ canucks

Spent almost all of the last 8 years either flying or driving long distances for work, probably flown about 350 times so far (srs)

Podcasts and Audiobooks baby

It ain't that bad.

[headturner1]

Did that for years. Never again, wfh crew

[Archaic2021]

Podcasts and Audiobooks baby

It ain't that bad.

Even at an hour now this is what I do. Podcast, Audiobooks, or comedy shows

[MEDITATE]

youre crazy man ... any work commute should be more than 10mins... 15 mins tops

not worth unless you move next to your new job ...........yesterday

[CumshotOfDaDay]

I’ve done 90 minute commute whilst working 12 hours everyday, so essentially doing 16 hour day. Was very hard

After that experience I never applied for jobs more than 30 mins away

[pojo18]

Id never commute more than 20 minutes one way to work for another man.

Any more and you might as well wear a name tag on your shirt that says "CUCK",

ded fkn srs.

1.5 hours? 3 hours round trip total? You might as well give your boss a rub and tug every Friday on top of things, since you're such a CUCK.

[MarkyMark215]

My commute is as follows:

Right turn out of my drive way
Right turn at 4-way stop
Left turn at T intersection
Left turn into work parking lot

Total of 10 mins


Just lol at urbancels. When will they learn that country living is GOAT

[pojo18]

And op is doing this for $20k more , just lmao.

Unless youre making some stupid low $$ like sub $75k, you'll hardly notice an extra $20k after daddy government takes his cut .

Ded fkn srs , it's certainly not worth a longer commute than your already cuckening 1 hour commute.

Assuming 260 working days in a year, you spend 780 hours just driving to your work like a good CUCK.

that's an additional 97 and a half full work days in your wage cage (your CUCK car)

[stevebec]

Did 90 min each way for 9 months but bailed as soon as I could. Didn't actually mind the drive itself, but couldn't stand to throw away 3 hours of my life each day.

I live in the country lol

[MarkyMark215]

Dollar General ----->

If you truly live in the country you have a Dollar General <15 mins away.. Work there

[SaintXx1]

I don't mind driving.

Prob an hour for a regular gig, except I just sat on a nice train most of the way.

[Techriding101]

my coworkers that live within 1 mile of me have an hour long commute either way, i ride a motorcyle and do it in 20 minutes.

[GuineaDago585]

There’s more to life than sitting in a car for 3 hours a day.

Currently I’m commuting about 30 mins each way. Across town suburb to suburb. It’s depressing.

I used to live in the city and work downtown. It was a 15 min bus ride each way. Idk why but sitting on public transit is far more relaxing than actively driving. If I chose to drive it was exactly 7 mins door to door. We also got to WFH every other week. Fuarrk. I miss it every day.

[CrazySerbian]

Would kill myself if that was my commute (srs).

[Destor]

Weak af, but I guess this is to be expected when we've enjoyed such good times for like 30 years

Wasn't so long ago that people were travelling by train across the continent for work and had no communication with home base aside from written fukn letters

[AWSbruh]

I don’t understand people that commute. Just move it it’s over 1 hour lmao

[WoofieNugget]

Used to drive 30 minutes each way, sometimes twice a day. So it was about 7 hours a week of driving plus an extra $300 in gas per month.

COVID hit and I had to pivot, but moved my main business into my house and now it's saving me all that time plus the gas money. Much, much prefer having my commute being going down to my basement. My new office for my second business is a ten minute drive.

For 20k a year I'd have to think about it, although it sounds like you already have a pretty long commute so it isn't a big deal.

[Destor]

5 extra hours per week
52 weeks per year
260 additional hours per year
$20000 / 260 = you're adding that time for almost $77/hr extra

Easy math in my books

[ThaNextLevel]

1.5hrs one way?
