Drive to work. This job is basically not worth commuting for.
It depends on where you are commuting from/to. It depends on your priority when commuting. I've been doing it 4 years 2-3 legs...I think I've used my clause once. I could hold a hub base come Jan but I chose to stay in an outstation base because I get 4 free hotel rooms vs 2 in a hub and additional rooms are cheaper. Not to mention I can hold a line I'm the outstation. Life is good
