How far is too far for a commute?

I may be getting a new opportunity soon and am wondering what the OT thinks about commutes. I do not want to leave where I am living, and this opportunity is quite a ways away.
If the job is worth it, career altering and what I want to do, is it worth the long commute for the time being until I decide to move closer?
I believe the term "long" is relative, as some may believe 20 minutes is long while others may think 2 hours is long. So what are your personal thoughts on how far is too far in general?

Just take your helicopter like an OT baller.

If it's an English class you will be attending nothing is too far for you.

30 minutes without traffic is too far

It's just driving, they're not asking you to cut a leg off.

I have had commutes of 2+ hours and they eventually suck, any more than an hour now and I get a room closer

45 mins - hour is my max. And it has to be a great gig to push me to an hour. I wouldn't work in downtown Austin for less than 115k.

for me, it would be an hour at most
but I would absolutely hate it...so much, eventually I would probably want to move, even unless I just absolutely had my dream place
my commute right now is 5 minutes

I really hate the idea of spending 2 hours a day on the road but right now my commute is 5 minutes.

anything over an hour and a half is too long

I commute 25 minutes to work and there is little or no traffic. I enjoy the trip, gives me time to wake up and clear my head for the day.

We are talking about 90-100 miles with no traffic.

I mean, I don't have anything against driving for a long commute. But I don't see how people with long commutes can be at work on time.

I just think it depends on where you are commuting to and from.

I commuted 30 minutes (not including traffic) for my last job and it wasn't too bad. I think an hour would be my max.
