I work in a very small city entirely surrounded by a much larger one. The one I work for is an enclave for the 0.1%. The average new home build here is over 10 times the price that of the major city that surrounds us, which is also very expensive for the region.
Suffice to say, I can’t live here. I live in a shitty trailer that’s about 2 hours away with traffic, but costs $700 a month as opposed to $3000+ for a tiny 1-room apartment near work.
The commute sucks, but I save $115 every day I commute.
That’s me.

Fortunately, I like audio books.
Do you work in the Vatican?
fam, try Pimsleur Speak & Understand language learning. A lot of libraries have them in CD form. That’ll kill half hour to an hour easy.
