'It took them about 3 seconds to realize': Worker commutes 6 hours each day, client complains about his repeated lateness

If you think you have a bad commute, just wait until you hear about this guy's drive. 

Commuting is the bane of many workers' existence. Whether it's a ten-minute bike ride or a two-hour car ride, you have to do it every day. Long commutes can be particularly exhausting---you arrive to work and you're already tired from driving or taking the train. If you do take public transit, there's a chance you can read or stream a TV show on your phone. But it's just a chance, because if you're packed in like sardines with the rest of the world's commuters, that might not be an option. 

Drivers can opt to listen to the radio while they drive. You can't always escape the traffic, though. At least with the radio, you can sing along to your tunes as you wait to merge. 

This dude would have to bring hours of music to manage his commute, though. This poor soul, Dave, was working an office job that required him to drive for 6 hours every day! Three hours each way is a massive commute. Just imagine if you suddenly had to sacrifice 6 hours of your day, five days a week. It would be an insane way to live. Poor Dave was probably barely sleeping… He must have left the house and 6 AM, and gotten back at 8 PM, and that's if traffic is perfect. Check out his story below! 

Next up, this nightmare client demanded an IT team start sending him all of his emails… even the ones they'd usually filter out.
