Two guys standing at the pump at a Shell gas station. The guy at pump 2 holds up the gas pump nozzle to his ear and tells the guy at pump 1 “Apparently, if you hold a Shell pump to your ear you can hear the shareholders laughing at you”.

    You buy a house where you work, you don’t work there anymore and it’s not a small cost to move.

      Again, why get a new job 100 miles away in that case?

      And if you have a reason to do so. Just don’t complain your commute takes you 3 hours.

        Because not every career path has parody at every street corner. No, still complain. The issue is public transit, long commutes are extremely common even in European nations with a bit more mobility the difference is in most European countries you have fast affordable transportation. Japan 100mi is a bullet trip that’s much less than an hour, same with most of Europe. 10mi on my local public transit is $5 and over an hour.
