Currently:
Mon - 2.5 hrs roundtrip via public transportation and work shuttle
Tues - 40-min roundtrip via car
Thurs - 40-min roundtrip via car
I've done it all though.
2013-14: 4-5 hrs roundtrip via car
2014-16: 12-min roundtrip drive or 30-min roundtrip bike (usually did the latter with occasional rollerblading and walks sprinkled in)
2016-2019: Full-time WFH
2020-2021: 2.5 hrs roundtrip via public transportation/work shuttle x 5 until early March 2020, then full-time WFH
2022-onward: Hybrid schedule (commute time varied depending on which sites I covered)
From all these experiences, I most enjoyed the 30-minute roundtrip bike (or 35-min rollerblading/1 hr 20 min walk roundtrip) work commutes. During that time, I lived in a beach town (Santa Monica) in my 20s and had a really healthy lifestyle (exercised a lot, ate well, slept enough and good, etc).
So, weird to say but hairy option for the win.
