SO got a job in boston. We don't live in Providence. But let me break down a day of travel

• Wake up at 6:30
• drive SO to train station
• Train for 2 hours
• Walk to job 20 min(?)
• Work and be trapped at work for 8 hours
• Run to train station
• Train 2 hours
• Get picked up at train station Drive 30 min home

It sucked the life out of both of us. THe parking passes were expensive. I"ve waited for 3 hours because the train home was late or got stuck or something. Small delays happen a lot.

I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. I"d say getting a home/apt neat a different train stop might make it better. Think about the car and parking and monthly train pass. SO's job got a little discount on the monthly, but it's not cheap for the run down train cars.
