Commuting from MoCo/Silver Spring to Baltimore
Hi everyone:
Popping on to get some advice. I interviewed for a job in Baltimore.
In all respects, it sounds really awesome. It's a good step up in seniority and logical progression from my current role. Yes, more money but also better opportunities for professional growth. I have one more round of interviews but I seemed to hit all the boxes for experience they were looking for.
Thing is...I live in Silver Spring/MoCo. The job has a four day in-office requirement. Uugh. If I took the job, how much would I hate my very existence every day? If they make an offer, I want to have this part figured out/decided if the commute is worth it.
I have a car and would be driving. I think the pay bump covers the increased fuel/toll cost but doesn't account for wear and tear on the car or the exhaustion from the commute. My current commute is about 15 minutes so the increase is not insignificant.
Does anyone do a similar commute? How bad is it? Google maps said about 45 minutes when I checked the travel time on a typical workday. Is that accurate?
Thanks!
