The High Price of Commuting

Commuting to work every day adds up fast. Where does your commute fall?

Only commute 5 minutes one-way? That's 10 minutes a day which, at 5 days a week, adds up to 40 hours at the end of the year. Are you traveling 1 hour one-way? That's 480 hours at the end of the year. 

Where did you fall? Are you okay with that? What would you do with that extra time if you worked from home?
