    I mean the problem isn’t even ‘no more pay,’ you are paid less if you work in an office. All the resources you use to commute cost more money than internet, which you’re paying for anyway if you’re alive in current year. Why would you willing take a pay cut, commit yourself to 5-10 unpaid hours of commuting, and ensure that you produce worse work and are less productive and producing that work while working in the most mentally and emotionally draining environments to ever be devised?
