> It is amazing how I manage to rationalize sitting in traffic for that amount of time every day to myself.
I may be weird, but I enjoyed my commute prior to COVID. I purposely avoided the Interstate Highway, even though it would have saved me 10 minutes, in favor of backroads that have less traffic. Then during my commute, I listen to Audiobooks.
I kind of felt that this was my personal time just for me to listen to the books I liked. At work and home, there are always people clamoring for my time and attention, but my commute was just me time.
In addition, I have a vehicle with stop and go, automatic cruise control, so even a traffic jamb is not all that stressful.
