An hour spent commuting is 1/16th of your daily life, and that hour is by far the biggest risk to your life every day. You should be getting triple pay to ameliorate the hazard risk it represents.

    Office parks in the middle of nowhere suck. You’re never going to be close to everyone, employees can’t walk somewhere for a change of scenery or to take a break, and being away from downtown means public transit is less likely to reach the area.

    I’m all for letting people pick a coworking space if they want, but making people commute to the suburbs is a different kind of hell.

      The lack of scenery and being in the middle of nowhere with poor public transportation options is a failure of suburban design caused by segregation of commercial and residential areas and too much dependency on personal cars. I’ve never liked those rows up rows of identical single family homes, they feel empty and soulless, which is why I prefer staying on the outer neighborhoods of downtown so there’s plenty of walkable places and public transportation options
