It's probably worth it for now, but I don't see myself doing that for the coming 18 years 
That's A LOT of hours wasted in traffic.
Well, as you said, you don't consider it waste, I do

My longest commute about 45 mins by car, just over an hour in public transport, and 45 minutes on my bicycle. (without the special bike paths and flatness everywhere where you live.) This week every day.
Cycling is:
- the most pleasant,
- less stressful method,
- almost completely free with free benefit of fitness.
(And can laugh the braniacs that spend an each way hour on their extended backsides commuting 5 km/miles to work in rush hour, and then pay way too much money to spend another hour running on a treadmill / stationery bike in a gym.)

Yeah, I currently cycle to work, about 20 minutes.
We moved about two years ago, before that it was 45 minutes.
20 minutes by bicycle is nice, going to miss that

Maybe after working for a little while can try the bike,
but traffic sucked when I there (over 20 years ago), must be worse now.
brommer?

Just to piss you off, I have a 7 minute stroll to work and come home for lunch. And I'd still prefer to work from home.
In real estate it is location in our line of work it is content, I hope yours is interesting.

Yes - can be had with either dark chocolate and walnuts or milk chocolate and peanuts.

Having reluctantly moved from a desktop to a laptop at the office I had to actually unplug the blasted thing yesterday to take it to a meeting.
Upon returning I plug all the bits in, including the big external monitor I use, the squidgy little laptop monitor works, nothing on the external monitor, windows 10 says it is there, the power light comes on but no picture.
While fiddling in the setup a colleague switches the primary display to the external monitor only - fark nothing, both screens blank. Unplug the external screen and it all appears on the laptop, plug in the external, nothing. Ahh crap the monitor is dead and the laptop is pointing to to the external monitor only.
Now it takes up to 3 days for IT services to respond to a call and policy will not let you boot to safe mode, answer filch some other poor bastards monitor and we are good to go.
He gets back from holidays on Monday, I hope I can get a replacement monitor by then - extremely unlikely.

You need a docking station.

There are usually Fn-key combinations (eg Fn-F8) for switching monitor configuration (I think at the BIOS level). I've used them to recover from similar woes. RTFM!
Sad but true story. My sister in law's laptop keyboard was full of gunk, so I talked my bro through popping keycaps and vacuuming/spelunking. I assumed he had the nous to power it off first. Noooo.... Switching the primary and only display to the non-existent external monitor was just one of the things his random keyboard bashing managed to achieve. :headbang:

Meanwhile, get yourself a docking station.
I am endeavoring, ma'am, to construct a mnemonic memory circuit using stone knives and bearskins.

Oh, and since clearly no one else has mentioned it, and get a docking station.

Perhaps shouldn't have said that, might end up listedlisted in the PETA files.
