I used to commute between Riverside County and San Diego. I would wake up at 3 in the morning and not get home til 7 or later. The traffic was horrible, I ate nothing but fast food, and I had no hobbies outside of work. I fell asleep at the wheel more than once, and still have nightmares where I fly off the highway because I dozed off. It was the worst year of my life, I wouldn't do it again if the job was CEO of Apple

A woman who worked in the financial aide department at my college, Northern Kentucky University (in the Cincinnati metro area, lived in Louisville Kentucky which is exactly 100 miles away and drove to work every day. I found that especially crazy because I'm from Louisville too and always found it daunting to drive home to see friends and family. Never knew how she did it, maybe good podcasts?

Yeah this is pretty common in California. People commute from all over California to SF. This phenomenon is caused by the insanely expensive sprawled out Bay Area (outside San Francisco, Oakland, and Daly City, and Los Angeles metropolitan areas. The sprawl means that a lot of cities don't have enough housing to keep up with demand. So we need to get cities to build more affordable housing.

I found odd (and somewhat worrying) you didn't mentioned more job locations built near housing, only the opposite. We need more decentralization of (good) jobs. Clustering through new density centers is good. Unfortunately outer suburbs and small towns are often ignored from the urban planning community, hindering their portential.

My former boss's husband was one of those super commuters. He was a passenger in a 6 person Cessna from UC Davis to San Jose daily. 40 min flying time vs 3 hours in car traffic. Since he was a tech engineer in silicon valley he could afford what I assume were 100 daily tickets

I actually turned down a job because it turned out my future boss flew into London from Barcelona. I just couldn't tolerate that level of patent ignorance for global warming!
Racks my brain just thinking about it!

Here where I live, northern Mexico, that's quite common among doctors, they work in local public hospitals but on the weekends they fly to the US to do surgeries or to their private offices.

I always get excited when I feel a video is about me
I'm a super commuter.
I'd like to know what proportion of pilots and crew are super commuters. I'd imagine a huge percentage

It's also insane, that Walmart has its own corporate airline for regional managers, flying and visiting several stores a day. Just because Walmart wants only one head quarter.
