If they pay me for travel time, maybe. I ain't working an extra hour and a half every day for free.

Nope. I've turned down jobs just because of the distance. I'm currently at work, about 8min from home.

I wouldnt no. I live in bumfuck nowhere in the Midwest in the middle of cornfields and soybean fields located between a bunch of farms but the upside is we have low population, low traffic, and easy highway access so even when you live out in the middle of nowhere generally you dont have to drive that far and we get there quick.

30 minutes is my personal max. Especially because in the winter that could easily be an hour or more depending on road conditions.

Is it 45 without traffic? Because you end up with traffic and it can easily double travel time which sucks.

I was typing my previous reply before your edit. I was already a no but now its a hell no. That 10 hour day is really a 12 hour day when you account for waking up, getting ready, packing food and what not and travel. If youre sleeping roughly 8 to 9 hours on average your free time during the 4 work days is almost non existent.

The 3 days off wont feel like enough. This would be a huge hell no to me.

I work a real early shift so the drive in the morning ain't bad. The drive back sucks.

No. My last job was 2 minutes from home. The longest commute I've done is 35 minutes and that was too long.

Yeah Ive had 1 hours each way commutes for most of my adult life. You throw on an album or podcast each way, downgrade to a little gas.sipper clown car and reap the rewards. Leave early, and your overall stress and cortisol levels will be WAY lower than if you cut it close each day. Or clarify the leniency tardy policy.

Not completely horrible. Did that for a few years and hearing podcasts/shows/yt videos definitely ease the pain.

Depends on what is meant by "above average"

A bunch of people commute 1-2 hours for jobs that range between 60k and 6 digit pay

Roughly 50% more. Say the average pay for jobs in your area equates to roughly 20$ an hour, youd get 30 at this job

I already am working an 8 hour job M-F that averages 45 minutes (if I take traffic on my way back into account).

Yeah I'd consider doing that schedule if I'm salary (can get off before 10 hours if my work is done), it's a really good company and the pay is worth it.

I live in LA, so I already do that. Hell on Thursday's I drive over to my gf's place after work and it takes me 1.5 hours to get there because of the traffic. It is what it is.
