30min is considered short ? Damn, I have 15min to commute and when looking for a new place I did put a limit at 20min from my work place. Most of my colleagues have shorter commute time than me.

No suprise more than 2h wasted per day would make someone depressed.

I've had 45 minute to 2 hour commutes. 30 minutes would've been heaven

And that 2hrs commute is usually only one way. I know a few office worker that drive 3hrs one way, does not help with the compound traffic.

My first job ever had a commute of 1.5 hours each way. I did it to get my foot in the door, but the commute was quite miserable. The only upside was I could sleep on the bus.
