re: Is the commute from the Northshore to the Southshore that bad?

I know someone who lives in Covington and his office is in the CBD.

And he loves the commute. But he is an attorney that almost daily has to talk to people in NYC. He leaves his house at 8 AM, gets on his phone to NYC, and has a billable hour on the way.

In the evenings, he leaves his office about 6, and almost daily confers with a major client in San Francisco, and makes another billable hour on the way to the Northshore.
