Crock of shit. My commute:

- Steals 10 hours of my time every week. I could spend 10 extra hours with my family, get better sleep, or actually have time for the gym

- Costs me thousands a year. Money wouldn't be so tight if I had the £200 extra a month my commute costs me.

- Causes ridiculous stress with all the dumbshits on the roads

- Force me to spend 2 hours a day in a car surrounded by other polluting vehicles

- Means I have no access to my kitchen to cook fresh, healthy meals without worrying about having to transport them to work/heat them up in gross microwaves

- Means that I can't make the most of my solar panels, which give me free electricity... during the hours I'm at work.

Siting in my car for 2 hours a day, getting increasingly stressed, is absolutely not good for my mind and body. Especially when I know I could be sat at home, in a relaxing environment, with all the comforts of home.
