We will see. New experience that i'm after.

My commute for 5 years has been the walk from the bedroom to the study.
Estimated time: 5 seconds on a bad day, when i'm feeling spry it drops down to about 3 seconds.
Long may it continue.

Working weeks in a year 46
Working days per week 5
annual working days 230

1 hour commute each way 460
16 waking hrs per day 16
Days of your life lost per year sitting behind the wheel 28.75

So +or_ here or there you spend one month of your life behind the wheel or on a crowed train so as you can start earning your taxes once you arrive at the office.

1.5-2 hrs one way = max 2 days on-site
1 hr one way = max 3 days on-site
Never ever had offered less than 30 min, would probably consider doing 4 days a week in this case.

That sounds like an utter nightmare to me. I did it for 18 months and hated every minute. That said it sounds perfect for a deluded cretin that has the same charisma and social skills as a house brick.

WTF!! Do you live in a bedsit? Actually do you live in a wardrobe?

+1 A day or 2 WFH a week = great, i did WFH full time for a 3 month contract a while back, drove me bonkers, so much so that i refused the extension offer for an office based role that (when factoring in commute costs) means I was getting less in my sky rocket.

You're right about the first bit anyway. I should admit It's driving me nuts. Once this contract is over, I'm going back to the real world. And when I go back I probably will have the charisma and social skills of a house brick

Study is next to the bedroom which is quite large. Is your bedroom the size of a football field or are you just a fat lazy bastard?
