I supercommute 5 hrs from LA to SF: 'one of the best career decisions I've made' (msn.com)

Every time I see an article like this I'm frustrated by the positive spin they put on an environmentally irresponsible and unsustainable practice.

Frustration isn't a sign to quit! It's part of the process! Have you considered doing affirmations?

The headline is definitely misleading - this isn't a daily commute for this person, they fly out on Wednesday morning, and fly back on Friday night.

I was beginning to wonder how the hell they actually manage to "reset" & connect with friends and family if they're doing this every day, but this is just a weekly flight - honestly, this doesn't feel that much different from what some sales people & support engineers have to do.
