> One woman told the Washington Post that even though she was working from home, she regularly sat in her car in the driveway at the end of the workday in an attempt to carve out some personal time and mark the transition from work to non-work roles.
Nobody that lives in a cold climate area is doing that nonsense. It was 6F(-14C) here the other day…I’m staying inside.
They got it backwards. I need to physiologically recover from my commute more than my work. I honestly enjoy most of my job, I despise every moment of my unnecessary commute

Literally the worst part of work.

This sounds like another hit piece on WFH

Just get out and take a walk

Commuting is so [detrimental to your health](https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/16078055.2014.903723). Not surprised a capitalist rag like Fortune thinks it’s a great idea though.

pretty sure I have worse PTSD from dealing with commuting then I ever needed to “psychology recover” from work

Ummmm….no.

Take a shower at the end of the day and put on different clothes. A much more pleasant way to detach and recover.

I enjoy my commute. But that’s because it’s a walk in a historic neighborhood in my city not hours trapped in a car.
Techutante says
How about time off eh? Maybe 3 days weekend?

It’s just weird this study was done by the Indentured Servitude Institute /s

I need to psychologically recover from a commute. What now, Fortune???

In the next issue: Need more exercise during the busy work week? Why not volunteer to get hunted by C suite douchebags for sport!

Wow, someone likes the beatings and the gruel.
“What I really think would be helpful, is snarled traffic where I’m moving at a crawl — that’s really good for meditation.”
