I knew of a couple of people that lived in Atlanta and commuted to Birmingham. A lot of them partially commuted and stayed in Birmingham. However there was one woman who commuted the 2.5hrs 5 days a week. She said it wasnt as bad as it sounds because she could get all her calls done while driving.

The last 26 years of my career I had a 180 mile round-trip commute (Wanted to raise our family in a place with low crime-good schools-affordable).
To avoid sitting in Bay Area traffic for hours I'd start my day at 3AM and end it at 10PM when I went to bed, plus I was on call 24/7, 3 weeks out of each month. Lived on 5 hours or less sleep for all those years. Within a week of retiring and not having to make that commute, my mental and physical health improved 100 fold...
That just sounds miserable, I would have to make changes to my life long before retirement

My commute is about 72 miles. Straight highway no traffic and about 40 minutes each way
About the same as my dad who works in Atlanta ad drives half the distance
