I work from home now and only visit the office (voluntarily) once a week to socialize. I’m so exhausted when I get home. I sometimes wonder how I managed to do that five times a week commuting more than an hour each way and still do extracurricular activities after work for 10+ years when I was younger.

i think the negative effects of spending 10 hours a week and 40 hours a month sitting in the car are a lot more damaging than people want to believe
The 200+ hours a month sitting at a desk, in front of the tv, or doom scrolling, are probably far more damaging than the 40 hours in traffic.

A little of the above and a lot of not wanting to starve to death.
