Since March 2020 I work from home. 2 years for a company ~20 miles from me, I went there 1 time to take a PC and 1 time to bring the PC back at the end of my contract. Then a year in a company ~100 miles from me (did 4 trips to bring HW), and for next year I should have a 2+ years contract for a company ~375 miles away.

Never ever I will RTO commuting useless hours. If the job is 5 minutes from me I may, but else, never.

Better be 5 minutes walking

Nope. My last job was a 10-minute commute. Still not going back to an office. Nothing in my skillset requires me working in an office.
