Does anyone have a long commute to work??

If so how long does it take you and how do you cope or do not cope with the journey?
I am looking to move to Dorset but will have a commute of 2 1/2 hours to work from Dorset. A few people where I work actually do this and have been doing it for a while.

I would more than likely driving to and from work. I have thought about changing my job but there isn't a lot of work down there. I also am not sure If I could cope with the stress of a new job as well as new schools moving etc. I am sure I could but just want some advice please.

I am at the lenghts of some of your commutes. That is absolutely INSANE.

Admittedly, I am on the other extreme as my commute is 8 mins by bike but I simply couldn't imagine spending 3-5 hours of my day travelling on top of a full day's work.
