GOD I hate Indeed and other services

Every job I look at ends up being way too far away and inconvenient. Every good job. I am willing to travel 15-25 miles every day to work, but so many postings that I filter just take that number and go ham wild. Some jobs are 62 miles away, like wtf how are you even shown to me (worst part is the job looks amazing and pays $150/day after taxes) or it is technically within the mile range, 25-30 instead of 25 max, but requires using the turnpike which would be $6/day just to go to work, and due to its location also have busy commutes in congested traffic areas.

It doesn't help that Indeed isn't transparent about who is hiring or where they are located outside of City, State which doesn't help much. I just wish exact addresses and distance calculations were at the top of every damn post.

Damn this pissed me off.
