    How much was electricity when you were working at home? Air conditioning? Are you buying more alcohol? If you are complaining that you are buying lunch more thats your problem… you can pack a cooler and bring that shit to work.

      It’s all personal. But for me I only run the air conditioner for 3 months and normally not every day. I also run the heat for four. But all that plus electricity costs less than gas, tolls , car payment and car maintenance.

        Yeah, I think its all relative and depends on where you live. If you live in the south you can probably expect to pay for AC all day, probably 6-8 months of the year. As for car related, this is also all relative. If you have a car and it isnt used much for 15 months then I would expect the car to not start when you try.
