minus-squareseverien@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up20arrow-down2·edit-210 months agoCurrently you work 8 hours + 1.5 hours commute. With this you’d work 6.5 hours + 1.5 hour commute, so you’d have 1.5 extra hour for chores or whatever. If you use train/bus for commuting, you can even sleep there :-)
