Can you negotiate a partial telecommute position?
If the wife said she'd move, can you negotiate some relocation
reimbursement?
Quite frankly, I currently have a ~60 mile commute that takes about 1.5-2
hours; the last half is in bumper to bumper traffic. The client provides
me w/ flex hours, so I generally work from 7 to 3. I leave my house around
5:30-6:00. The standard rush hour commute is 2-2.5 hours. For the past ~9
months I've been doing this only 2 times a week (it isn't a full time
contract). Everything else in my life has suffered. It sucks the life out
of me and I wasn't this stressed since I had a real job.
I can't handle the commute.
But, I know not everyone is like me. Some people love to drive.
