Finally employed!
I recently got a job! but it’s in the city and a two hour drive. is it worth the commute?

Well first of all where do u live? I ask this because, do u have to drive in the snow and ice in the winter to get to work? Second how much are you spending for transportation (gas)?

They better be paying you very well!!!!! I can't deal with traffic, buses, trains etc. The aggravation is too much!! But I know many people who do it. Good luck! I hope it is a job you will enjoy going too. What are the costs of transportation?

its always good to have something to do by your hand especially if you have had nothing to for a long time bless you all with God,s mercy.

well we thank and bless God for all of you that have got something by your hand,keep your eyes up coz something is better than nothing.everything has got a starting point bless you with the blessing of the Lord in Christ Jesus name.

Hi. I'm kinda in the same boat . I ask myself the same question. Because I live in South Bend, Indiana. But job has decided to send me all the way to Chicago, IL . After a little soul searching . I decided it's worth it despite the daily commute. Bottom line if u like the job. Absolutely worth it

Can relate, B.L, if pay rate decreases too much b/c of gas/bus etc...find something near for less, if that's you're only income (Bread&butter)stick with it and keep looking for jobs in the process, a pair of shoes is better than none!

you definitely have to ask you self how much gas money your spending compared to how much you are bringing home two hrs is a long drive good luck

Congrats!! This is great news. It's hard to figure out if this job is worth the commute. Look at hard costs like gas, car, train, and soft costs like time with family and friends. Good luck and let us know if you take it.

Hi Bennett, I would definitely look at what the job has to offer and your situation. How long have you been unemployed? Would a job be better than no job at this point? Would this job help you further your career positively? If it is the best job you could imagine having, than definitely go for it. The commute will work itself out! Maybe you take the job and an opportunity arrives to move to the city. If this job is worth it, other things will fall into place if you think positively!
How much would you have to spend in gas a week? Would you have to drive through the snow and ice in the winter time?
