that’s your opinion right? I commuted for 9 months (3 hour drive) and hated every minute after the newness wore off... couldn’t wait to get back into the one hour ring (15 mins actually) from my base. Family happiness only goes so far if one/half of the couple hates every minute because of a 5 hour R/T. If you want to decrease YOUR QoL that’s definitely an option… but don’t try to pass off it’s a great option… it’s an option for sure but that’s about it.
