I guess that's a matter of perspective. I used to drive 45mins one way under light traffic conditions. This was a choice made of keeping a decent paying job and living somewhere with ranked school system. Sometimes, sacrifices are made when thinking of others.

Yeah traffic (or lack thereof) makes a massive difference. 45 min in light traffic... sure. 45 min each way, every day, in heavy, stop and go traffic is soul crushing.

I meant that it was 45 minutes in light traffic. It only got worse if traffic was not light, which it was not more often than it was. I didn't mean for it to be that ambiguous.
