This is like something out of Dante's Inferno. A literal river of souls trapped and yearning for escape, stuck in their choice to stay enslaved and enmeshed to the fiat drip of the wagie cagie faucet.

Yeah. Losing time out of your day for work is bad enough but at least you're paid for that time. Losing 1-2 hours per day just getting there is maddening, it's precious time for other things during the week.

Yes you will regret it, after a few months it will destroy you.

>>57406596
The worst thing is that at the end of it you just have another long day at work ahead of you. And you do the same tomorrow. And every other day. Forever.

>>57406596
yes

>fiat drip of the wagie cagie faucet
I'm stealing that

>>57406596
I just work further down my album backlog to keep me sane

>>57406596
Not for me, but I'm lucky to be able to just take the train.

>>57406724
you know what they say anon another long day at work another chance to grind the grind never ends bruh and neither my bank account i'm just chillin in my tesla heading to another day in the office making stacks while you cry about your long commute

>>57406596
it's pure hell if you work in a big city. i used to commute 32 miles into center city philadelphia. the last 12 miles took 40 minutes on a good day. the entire trip 70-80 minutes. every day you would see retards in shitbox cars, probably uninsured and uninspected, driving double the speed limit, weaving through traffic, riding in the breakdown lane, and so on. at least once a week there would be a huge crash caused by one of these retards (or caused by retards SCROLLIN ON DEY SAIL FOAM) that would shut down one or more lanes and turn that 70 minutes of hell into 90+ minutes of hell.

>>57406596
My commute to work is a 10 minute bike ride along a nice smooth path alongside a creek. It is the single best part of my job

>>57407021
That sounds incredible.

Just one more lane, bro

>>57407126

>>57407130

>>57407132

>>57406596
Nope its comfy 10 mins each way and that's not even driving like a spaz

>>57406844
Checked and correct
Every top 25 city population wise has this issue
The only pleasure I get is when those big wrecks happen, I say to myself “one less car, one less driver.” Of course replaced ten fold the next day but

>>57407141

>>57406695
Persona 5 is about that.

>>57407021
That's based friend

Yes because I hate sharing the road with you slow idiots. My wish every morning is that I hope you all die in a fire.

>>57407899
It literally says in the top left

>>57406596
LA truly seems like one of the worst places one could ever be in.

>>57406596
Working for anything that is not your true passion is slavery

>>57406596
Absolutely, even short commutes.

>>57408103

Everybody seems to hate it. Those who left it, and those who still live there.

>>57406695
Thank god for the chinks releasing that virus.

>>57407910
the most expensive cars on the planet are all euro cars
Ferrari, Lamborghini, Bugatti

>>57408991
And the only people that buy are sand niggers

>>57406596
Depends on where you live and what your work hours are. I have tried very hard to keep my schedule somewhat askew from the standard 9-5 because rush hour where I live is pretty congested and slow.
>>57406695

I hate cars-as-default thing that America has but I do respect that a car gives you leverage and agency. A car is a symbol of independence, that's why they want to outlaw owning cars.

That being said, Trains are the solution. Fucking trains, trains, trains, trains, trains, trains, trains, trains, trains, trains, a million times trains. A first-world society is that in which everybody can take the train anywhere comfortably. It's more power efficient, it's more time efficient, you can work while you commute, and it's so stupidly simple; but we can't have nice things because a gorillion AYOOOOOOOOOO A YO WHAT YOU DOIN I STOP YOU! I STOP YOU YO! will piss, shit and cum on the trains.

As to commuting I would rather do without. The modern incarnation of work is a fucking joke, and I would rather do without and work remotely, but it turns out that our 10000 different levels of MBA administrators administering administrators have nothing to do if they can't whiplash some faggots in an open floor so commute it is.

I hate everything about the commute. I hate that I have nobody to see because my whole team is in another state, I hate that nobody wants me there because they're racist assholes, I hate the overpriced food, I hate the open floor offices, I hate the building and I hate the city. Nobody is really doing anything and it's all performative lifestyle bullshit. I would rather do the REAL shit remotely and keep my systems running, but if we don't commute then (((someone's))) real state crashes and that's no good. I hate it all.

Besides, you can't cause collective trauma for years on end that the Chinavirus and telecommuting are the new normal and then just go "sike niggers, it's all a joke, come back to the office now for your penis inspection".

Bottom line, the only way to make a commute palatable is having actual local teams where real work is happening, private offices, and trains, but this being Weimar America, we will never have any of those things.

welcome to the rat race

They import 10 million + spics-jiggies-diaperheads-dotheads a year now. You ain't seen nothing yet.

>>57410329
Which is why I pray for nukes every single day

>>57406596
I honestly don't mind my commute at all. It's 30min on the motorbike, or about 50min + a lot of lane filtering if I leave during rush hour.

>>57409165
Trains suck, and I say that as someone from a country where easily 80% of people in the city commute by train. My 30min commute becomes 1:30 by train, assuming that nothing is late, early or cancelled (which it is at least 1/3 of the time). My line has had rail replacement buses for the last 6 months or more. And it's especially bad when you get one of the older trains with an extremely small pitch between seats, it's literally not enough for even two short people to sit face to face without their knees colliding. So you either weave your knees together in an incredibly intimate way, or more realistically you're both sitting on an angle to put your knees in the aisle, which ends up making your back hurt like a motherfucker by the end of the trip.

>>57409165
>A car is a symbol of independence, that's why they want to outlaw owning cars.
yeah anon it's all a big conspiracy to remove your independence, it has nothing to do with pollution.

>>57406596
>spending 2 hours a day listening to a banal podcast about a topic you're half interested in driving in murderous traffic while being unable to do literally anything else

what is a catalytic converter? found the midwit socialist.

>>57406596

i think this is why people hate cyclists (in Australia anyway)
They are stuck, cucked and fucked at the whims of traffic they have no control over. They see a chad cycle past carefree on his bike and they seethe. The wagie is stuck in his cuck mobile and he is very pissed off.

Most of my life I've had a ~15 minute commute under normal circumstances that I've never really minded. For a few months about 5 years ago, it was more like 30-40 minutes each way and I was never more miserable.

>>57406596
I wouldn't know, I live like 2 blocks away from my office. It probably does suck to drive 30 minutes to and from work though. I wake up at 7:40 and get to work by 7:55. I leave work at 5 and am home at 5:04.

>>57411995
Why can't cyclists just use the fucking bike path that's right next to them?

>>57412221
If only there were bike paths everywhere, I'd use them all the time.

>>57406596
Remind me why Americans are conditioned to think (and defend) a culture where this is normal for humans to live in these conditions?

>>57406596
Only compared to working from home.
It's objectively not that bad.

Midnight shift stay winning.

>>57406596
if it's an hour or more yeah that sucks.
less than an hour though im not really that bothered, just have a car that's comfy and find some audio books or albums to entertain you

it's wasted time, sure, but then aren't we wasting time anyway?

>>57413026
Thats LA there are no humans living in LA. Only spic animals.

>>57407291
>slothbucks
this is the exact opposite of being paid to be smart, you're a certified retard according to the social security office

>>57406596
Think of it like this:
1 hour commute to work
Work 8 hours
1 hour back
10 hours of work, 20 bucks on gas
Let's say you make 20 an hour. That's 11 hours of work to take home 160 bucks. You actually make 15 an hour. That's a commute. Enjoy u city livin' homo

>>57413329
dont commute an hour to make 20 an hour, theres dudes at the walmart 5 minutes from you making about that much

>>57406782
That’s even worse. Imagine having to sit next to normies and niggers

>>57406596
If you commute one hour to work and one hour from work, that’s an extra weeks worth of work every single month.

>>57409165
>I hate that nobody wants me there because they're racist assholes
Based coworkers

>reading through this thread
>commute is basically an hour give or take each way
I hate it so fucking much, at least when school isn't in the commute is only like 35 minutes or so. I'm hoping to get a new job soon

>>57406695
Unsettling.

>>57408959
You sound like a teenage socialist.
In nature any living thing would have to "work" to collect resources for food and shelter, which wasn't a passion for almost all of human history.
Would that mean the natural state of existence is slavery?

For anybody in this thread who's on the fence about buying a motorbike, you should do it.

>>57407021
Sounds like you need more diversity

Imagine living somewhere where i have to sit through that. There is no real reason to do it. It's just that you are comfy fat fucks. Just take your money and find work anywhere but there.

>>57411045
Every poor person who rides the train is one less shitbox on the road. A train can move 10 lanes of traffic. You get to keep driving your car even if every city gets the rail connections which make ridiculous sense, and some light inner city rail to get people to and from the stations. Airports too because you might as well.
Pros: less traffic
Cons: trains exist and that makes autists like you upset for no good reason.
