So recently I made a post here about how shitty it was being laid off from a helpdesk position. Luckily I had received a small severance package and not even a week later after applying I found a job at an MSP (IT contractor) but there’s a catch. The office is 50 miles away and it takes an hour to get there in very harsh Miami traffic.
Man that commute was brutal. It’s not every day I have to make that drive as some days I’m supposed to go to the clients location which is very close to my house, about 6 miles, 15 mins. What would y’all do in my situation? Would you keep the job or keep looking? Pay stayed pretty much the same but there’s much more opportunity for growth here.
I know this is antiwork and not a career development sub but the main point of this sub is to make light of how shitty 50+ mile commutes can be. What would y’all do in this situation?
