how far do you travel each way to work?
Im probably gonna accept a new job ive been offered. Problem is its 30 miles commute each way and it would take me about 50 mins each way.
Is this unreasonable?

Seven miles, I make a point of getting in one way or another, some just need one flake of snow and they "work from home" until spring.
I did 32 miles round the M60 from Wilmslow to Rochdale, doable but you need to factor in the costs and time into whether its worth it, but these days a job is a job.

I do a 22 mile each way commute, 225 mile a week.
I can do it in 40 mins when the traffic is light, but can take an hour on a bad day.
I actually miss going to work on the train somedays

I do between 400 and 700 miles in a day sometimes, one day after another. And yes i'm totally cream crackered at the end of it 
My partner drives 140 miles a day commute and sometimes business mileage on top of that too.

I used to have a job where I travelled 320 miles each way, using the (not) very economical Impreza.
I have to admit though, it was only two days per week, on a six month contract.
My longest daily commute on a 5 days per week job, was a round trip of 114 miles per day (for 2 years). My shortest was 9 miles (for 11 years).

I also work 15 feet (max) from my bedroom 
without measuring, 15 feet seems good from bed to desk considering I live in a smallish 3 bed house
My official office is a 30 mile or so round trip from here and in Slough so who can honestly say they would go to Slough

The M60 sucks for a 9-5 job!
