I thought my commute was awful... this guy FLYs to work?... in a different state? what the hell, and stays in hotels?

I don't consider remote work always an option, but in his case, either remote, get a job in Ohio, or move to New York. That's just not reasonable, and kind of makes him seem like a douche.

Only way that should remotely be acceptable is if you are a traveling salesman, and even then, should be your home state, and maybe adjacent states that you drive around different areas over the course of a month or two.
