Despite all of those remote jobs, there are still companies in IT that ignore ability to work remote. So some of us still commute every day several miles (kilometers), myself included: 100 km per day (50 km in one direction). What do you think drives company CEOs to ignore remote work?

The remote jobs seem to go to people in low cost locations, here in LA I have to commute 5 hours round trip, keep my sanity by using the bus so I can sleep up and back.

120 mi (193 km) round trip. Spend at most 2 hours behind the wheel but only 1-ish hour(s) on a good day
