Just imagine how dangerous Ed would be if he put even partial effort into working! But, we get a little insight: two hours each way? I’d be a bit sluggish, too, then I would look for a job closer to home, but then he may have to work!
Two hours EACH way? Ed must’ve loved working from home. Personally, I would’ve moved closer. Wasting 4 hours a day on the road (or track) would be too much for me.
Some won’t read this probably, but here goes: Ed’s poem is not about himself. He does not drive two hours each way to work. Twenty minutes at the most.
Clues:
1) He refers to the worker as a slob. Yes, because it rhymes, but even so, Ed thinks better of himself than that.
2) He refers to lousy pay. It’s been established many times that eEd is way overpaid. Yes, Ed’s work is slow, and in that he identifies with the worker in the poem. But Ed’s work is slow because he’s lazy and defiant.

Ed gets paid more than anyone what with all the raises he gets, yet somehow works the least.The moral of the story is…?

I think this year is starting to get to me, when I read Ed’s poem my mind did it as a sea shanty.

Two hour commutes are not unknown in time parts of the USA. You would think that Ed would want/be able to work from home.
