I’ve done it before on occasions my 1 leg commute didn’t work out. IMO it’s something to be used as a backup option, because it eats up an entire day when it’s a primary option and a 3 leg commute becomes a backup plan.

Unless both legs have multiple airlines flying flights frequently (something like 10x flights/ day total) I’d seriously look at another airline with a better commute and commuter rules (ability to reserve the jumpseat etc), or move to a base asap if a 2 leg commute is going to be your primary means to get to work.
