"It's sad to think that some people crave a commute because it's the only time during the day they have to themselves." 👀

    @ArcaneEye Its a line from this book. :) It is so crazy at work that the only time you have to yourself, is during the commute.

    Unfortunately I can totally relate to that topic of the book. Not 80 hours, but a loooot of overtime. And with COVID-19 while working at home it is a real pain!

    Can releate.
    Commute used to be the only time for myself, until covid-19 came along.

    What kind of IT world expects employees to do 100% overtime?

    Only time that's ever come close for me was on military deployment...

    @kwilliams Probably countries with barely any worker protections.

    I'm normally not pro-union, but if pretty much all employers in your country/region expect these kinds of things... time to create a union and go on strike.

    Commute is good if you have decent public transport. Otherwise you're fucked both ways.
