> Is it worth the price of mass daily commuting
Yes, but the commute is a huge cost.
I spend 80 minutes in traffic every day.
During this time I listen to podcasts, music, call people, and think.
I will be happy to have a remote-friendly job, e.g. when our systems are deployed in dozens of physical locations throughout the country, the DevOps role is essentially only possible as remote. But remote was just not a high priority for me this time. I really enjoy showing up. I'm not very social outside of work.
