‘Why are we commuting for an office job?’: Journalist sparks uproar for weekly ‘supercommute’ from Ohio to New York

‘Definitely asking for trouble’: Guy ‘works from home’ on VR headset on NYC subway, New Yorkers threaten to rob him

28 Memes for Grumpy Grinches to Scroll Through During the Midweek Commute
If a genie were to pop out of a bottle and approach me, floating just far enough so that they would not be ‘in my personal space’, I would gladly ask for my three wishes, and one of those would certainly be to completely erase my commute, or rather, rip my office building out of …
