My wife was talking about this recently. She used to wake up at 5:30AM everyday, take a shower, blowdry her hair and style it, put on makeup, and prep her lunch by 7AM. Then she'd set out on her 1.5 hour commute to the office.

Once we started working from home, all of that extra time went to sleeping well and relaxing.

3 hours a day of unpaid time just to get ready for work.... we were far overdue for a shift in the system.
