Your commute should be classed as part of your working day, and paid for accordingly.

@anon_opin Yes.

I’d be somewhat okay if at least one way [to or from work] would be, but yes.

@anon_opin Yes, unless you're one of those dipshits that lives in new hampshire and commutes into boston because you don't wanna pay your fair share in the society that employs you.
@anon_opin I work from home, but it would be nice to be compensated for my commute when there's heavy traffic on the way.
By which I mean sometimes I have to step over the dog.
@anon_opin I mean, companies can offer to give you a budget for fuel or public transport expenses related to work. We even have that in Romania, it's quite common.
@anon_opin my company thinks it's perfectly fine to require every employee within 100 miles of the office to commute in four days a week. Unpaid, of course. One of my reports would be commuting 5 hours a day without the medical exemption we got for them.
@anon_opin
I'm salary, and I log my own hours, so (shhh!) half of my commute gets recorded during the week
@anon_opin All jobs would suddenly be like some county government jobs where they require you to work in some smallish location. Already employees are often required to live within a certain state because employers don't want to pay out of state taxes. I have no idea how all the incentives and prices would work out. Economics says there will be some unexpected consequence.
