OH MY GOD every time I hear some Midwestern person tell me how proud they were that they drove 20+ miles (one way) to save <$1 per gallon on gas. They're so disconnected, gas is just a requirement of living. Distance does not compute in their calculation, it's just "yup I saved money".
Even if you did save money, that's an hour of driving. Even at minimum wage was it worth your time to do that?
midwesterners will drive an hour everyday and call it an easy quick drive
hell theyd call a 3 hour drive not too bad
I mean, a 3-hour drive is not bad if you don't do it all the time.
