Bruh.... I've been talking about the delta between the new job vs old job all along.

The difference between the pay is such minimal that you didn't think about how ridiculous your antics is/was.

You obviously didn't calculate the gas it'll cost the op to drive everyday and other commuting necessities.

At the end of the day, I wouldn't doubt the OP is only taking home additional $100 each week.

>I understand this is the internet where nobody can ever admit to being wrong about something

Yes, you are correct here. You are clearly wrong in this case.

18 000 / 12 / 4 = $375 per week (assuming he's getting paid bi-weekly)

I mean that's a rough estimate, but give or take the tax deductions, gas for the commute. He'll be taking home a lot less than that.

LOL, so what exactly is your point of argument? That OP shouldn't value their time and just salve away at work?

Entitlement? Or perhaps you've been trained all your life that companies shouldn't be paying for your actual time.

Time is money and it is something you will never get back in your lifetime.

The OP essentially only getting paid $375 per week (or $75/day) more. He/she can easily earn that without commuting that much. Op is wasting roughly 2hours each day on commuting and preparation. Not to mention the cost of the devaluation of the car.

Give me a break on this "entitlement" bullshit

You would hate your life and want your current job back.

Commuting sucks, period. Anything over 15mins is worth at least 50k more.

You are also forgetting you would need to waste another 15-30 mins to get ready for work. Time you would never get back.

Find another WFH job and just double up.
