Work from home
In 2019 I commuted 3 hours every day, and now I work from home.
I never had a problem commuting to work. It was okay because I had time to listen to podcasts or new music.
One day I started thinking about the time I spend commuting to work and back home. I was actually shocked when I realized how much time I spend only to go to work.
Every workday, I commuted:
- 20 minutes by car
- The distance from home to the train station.
- 1 hour by train
- 12 minutes by feet
- The distance from the train station to the workplace.
… and the same back home.
