I really think with a proper full time job working long hours

Why would you be working "long hours" at your full-time job?

I mean the standard 40h + 3-10h commuting per week is already long hours IMHO. People usually work the hours their employer sets, so.

Ah, OK. I thought something different was being said by "long hours." To me, ~40 is "normal", but when you start talking 50+, that's "long hours". And I don't think anybody should be doing that unless they're being compensated appropriately.

I try to commute on a train. Sometimes it's feasible to work while on the train, and a long commute is less of a problem.
