@matigo one such township us clise to the state's northern border. Years ago I did some telecommunications training with a fellow who sometimes worked there from his base which was 3 hours away by road. Picture this: 3 hours to drive there; 40 minutes to work; 30 minute lunch break; 3 hours to home. That the full 8 hr & 10 minute day gone. Old Joe said they eventually worked out it was best if the workers stayed somewhere nearby. The hotel had no rooms, they had to set up a caravan on the telephone exchange grounds and pay a special hardship allowance.
