<prompt> Human: Hello, hope this will make sense. I believe I have thought about the other variables. At my current position, I have the ability to work from home on a daily basis. I am concerned that my position may be downsized, so I have very recently been looking at other opportunities and feel like I will be offered a similar role very soon with a company that will require me to drive into work. The drive will take about an hour to and from work 5 days per week. I am in a car for two hours per day. I have found several sites that can give me the costs of ownership for driving my car based on mileage per year, but what about my time lost? Is that a thing? Is the fact I work from home a luxury, or can I affix a cost to my time and apply it like the cost of ownership of driving my car to consider that a cost for taking the job BEFORE I consider anything else a salary increase?Help would be appreciated, friends of Reddit.  <response>: You can negotiate a higher salary. But I wouldnt mention that the reason is you including travel time. They dont care where you live. Get an apt 5 min away from work and walk for all they care.
