I had the luxury of moving to a different city where my employer has offices. I dropped my commute from 1 1/2 hours each way on bus and subway to 40 minutes walking, or 20 minutes by bike or bus. 80 minutes of walking a day ... I can save money on a gym membership, too!

Very negative attitude! I actually enjoy my commute. I read/listen to music/meditate/do my makeup/make lists/watch videos or just gaze out of the window. Commuting needn’t suck. You can use it to decompress.
