re: Should I Accept the Job Offer?

I can see why you’re on the fence. 60% pay bump and better career outlook is huge. But I gotta say commuting 2 hours a day is gonna be soul sucking man. You’re gonna wear down your car a lot faster, you’re gonna feel like you’re working a lot more bc you’re adding so much time to your day. Why do you have a definite 2 hours commuting every day after relocating? Job site in the middle of nowhere?

Edit: saw you answered that. Since you’re single it’s probably the only time you’d want to consider doing 2 hour commutes

Can you take calls in your car during the commute to reduce your work day? Can you get a company vehicle? Any chance to work from home partially (probably not since construction)? That commute is gonna be the big issue. But I work with guys who do Lafayette to BR everyday for a decade or longer so it’s not impossible, I just couldn’t do it
