Ruth Ajala, a 30-year-old information governance officer, has taken on an exhausting nine-hour daily commute from Portsmouth to London to enhance her career. After struggling to find a job locally for nine months, Ajala creatively applied for positions far from her hometown. Her commute begins at 4:30 a.m., allowing her to arrive at work by 8:45 a.m. She uses her commute time productively, often reading or sleeping. Despite skepticism and criticism on social media regarding the sustainability of her routine, she remains focused and mentally prepares for her demanding schedule.
She works hard for her money. Since return-to-office mandates have continued well into 2025 across corporate America, many employees are forced to take on long commutes to abide by their employer's rules.
Ruth Ajala, a 30-year-old woman, commutes nine hours a day to advance her career. After job hunting for nine months, she found an information governance officer role in London.
