did you tilt your head to side when you typed this?

I drove 110 miles every day for almost 7 years. I didn't mind it at all as it was mostly interstate and I was going the opposite direction of all the traffic.

If your stuck in traffic the whole time that's a big dofference.

2 days a week I commute 460 miles round trip.

frick that

I've done it 3 times a week for several years now. I complain about it in my head from time to time, but it's worth it to live where you want to live. You have to go where the money is, and honestly you get used to it after a while. Howard Stern Show and Audible.com help ALOT.

I did it for a year when I lived outside of Anchorage. The commute sucked but I loved living where I did at the time. It was worth it.

I always worked away from home so I didn't know what I was missing. Now I live 3 miles from the office and I go home every day.

However, the hour long drive allowed me time to game plan for the day in my head, and also allowed me to relax on the way home. My office and area were so far away, I could feel like I was really leaving work behind in the afternoons.

I also have a company vehicle and they paid my fuel costs. That was a negative I didn't have to deal with personally.

ETA I passed a Walmart, CVS/Walgreens, gas stations, or anything else I would've needed in the town where I worked. Most of the time I passed them a few times a day. Allowed me to run errands on my way to or from the office.
