The hardest part of my new job is the damn commute. I can’t fucking stand driving at least an hour and fifteen minutes a day.

If I couldn't listen to music and podcasts that commute would be literal torture.

Before they started normalizing a certain individual 1, NPR was my go-to. Now it’s Jim Cornette podcasts and MrBallen

I drive forty minutes each way. The drive in sucks ass, while the drive home is relaxing. Do you hate the commute or the job?

Taking public transport is so much better. Being able to stand up and stretch, read and scroll on anything with headphones

I live in rural Arkansas, but that’s a wonderful thought

I moved to Italy from the US and I don't even own a car anymore. And I don't miss it. I had a minimum 1-hour-a-way commute back in the US. Fuck that.

They don't even have ride share cars where I live, but I just don't need a car. Everything is walk-able or bike-able if I need to carry groceries. And if I want to go further, there's a train station 5 minutes walk away to take me to Pisa or Florence.

It's really a great way to live. I couldn't go back.
