I'd grin and bear it to be honest. Perhaps try and look at it like time you won't be spending money on utilities to warm your house and stuff like that. For perspective, though, I prefer going out to work rather than working from home, and my commute takes just over an hour each way four days a week.

Due to my car issues my commute is 2.5 - 3 hours. I have to walk 20 mins to the tram, then a 35 minute tram ride, followed by a 55 minute train and another 20 minute walk. Which is why it sucks for me.

When I have a car again and this claim is settled I’d happily do more in the office as it’s only a 90 minute drive. I really need something closer to home.
