20-year-old who can't drive accepts job 45 minutes away, balks when mom refuses to drive them back and forth: 'This is just not a job your kid can accept'

Commuting to work is a necessary evil that most of the working world has to deal with. Aside from those lucky remote workers, most of us have to figure out a way to get our behinds to the office and back every single day. If you're especially blessed, you might live within walking distance from your job. But most of us either have to drive or use public transportation to get where we need to go. It might not be a fun part of having a job, but it is a necessary one. And the thing with jobs is that you usually have to be solely responsible for yourself. You can't count on anyone else to get you there, because what happens when they flake? You can't just call out of work whenever your ride bails. 

That's the hard lesson one 20-year-old had to learn when they accepted a job they had no means of getting themselves to. Read on for the story and see what you think.
