‘I just couldn’t do that drive any more’: Woman left job due to three-hour commute on N7 - Sopuli

What makes this Not The Onion to me is how normalized this story is. How did things get to this point? Would she be happy with a job that only had a 2 1/2 hour commute each way!? Maybe, and that is what makes it existentially funny to me.

who the fuck takes a job 3 hours away

Traffic may have been more manageable when they took the gig.

Or, maybe housing costs and limited jobs forced them into this position. I know a lot of people in my area live away from the urban center for more affordable housing, but they work in the urban center because that is where the job opportunities are.
