It’s completely personal. For me a 45 min drive twice a week would be completely ok, especially for the right job. Easy actually. Lots of people do this or more everyday. I wouldn’t do the 1.5hr PT, double the commute time isn’t appealing since I have car and don’t mind driving. But if I didn’t have the car option might be ok for twice a week. 1.5hrs each way 5 days a week would probably be a no for me at this point in my work life. But entirely depends on how good this opportunity is for you. Is it something not easily found, or good pay, chance to progress your career etc?
