Why is it that everyone's first response seems to be along the lines of patting this guy on the back for his dedication to getting to work (an applaudable work ethic, to be sure) but no one condemns his employer for his abysmal hourly wage, which is what forces this ridiculous commute? According to TFA, he's a favorite of the company owners—but apparently not such a favorite that they can bump the wages of a worker who's been there for at least ten years into something approaching a living wage. They don't seem to have a problem with the healthcare problems this man is almost certainly creating for himself from the numerous ill effects of sleep deprivation.
We should all be disgusted by this.
