An hour spent commuting is 1/16th of your daily life, and that hour is by far the biggest risk to your life every day. You should be getting triple pay to ameliorate the hazard risk it represents.

    If you do the math, its just horrible. If you have one hour to work, its 2 hours every day just getting to and back from work, which is 10 hours per week.

    So you are spending more than an entire work day every week in traffic! Every year, you are spending 41 full working days in traffic!!

    Isnt that just insane? If you are working from home, you have 10 hours of free time every week. The value of that is insane. You could go to gym, spend time with family, learn how to cook, whatever. Its a lot of time.

    On a related note, you should get off big tech social media because that will suck up so much time you could use to improve yourself instead.
