About $7k in mass transit costs for me.

And then they wonder why I said “none” to “how many days a week will you be in?”

Where do you live that transit costs you that much? That’s astonishingly high.

Tristate area, commute to NYC, only option is a private carrier. Prices change based on the cost of fuel mostly, varies from $500-700/mo.

And yes, it’s absurd.

Edit: I should add that’s the discounted monthly option for 40 trips (so 20 days of commuting). If I pay each day, it’s $100/day, which is what I do now since I don’t commute in enough anymore to be worth any of the discounted commuter options.

How much is that remote job worth to you? Americans will part with pay to work from home
