I need a job got a potentially good opportunity right now but the commute is around 50 minutes to 1hr and 10 mins peak traffic. Currently NEETing after quitting minimum wage garbage, anyone done long distance travel work?

Not enough info, how good is this offer, what is your mean of transportation (public bus/train is pure cancer)

Is this to and back, or just one trip?

A 2 hour cumulative commute seems miserable tbh, but depends on the pay, the work environment, and other factors.

I didn't have work, but school was a 1 hr commute, and it sucked.

Car, it’s a temporary role about 4 months but it’s better than anything I’ve had before including pay, thinking of just taking it better than rotting

Stick with it while you get an opportunity that's closer.

If the job itself is chill, coworkers are cool, it might be be worth the trade off.

if the pay is good i don't see why not, you can read or watch something on the way home.

you don't have youtube videos/music/podcasts/audiobooks/ phone call conversations you wouldn't mind spending 2 hours a day on?

Yea you're right could just download podcasts and audiobooks and play it while I drive not a bad way to kill time, driving is kinda relaxing tbh

Was thinking this

Got an interview offer but it's 75-80 min commute one way, and I couldn't get to the start time with that, so I had to decline, even tho job looked good

I'm struggling to find jobs at all, let alone within an hour's commute (public transport - I don't have a car)

Was never one still in applications process, had an interview not too long ago but it’ll be months before I know the result

168h per week
10h commute time
56h sleep
40h work
Commuting time is 10 / (168-56-40) = 14% of your spare time
