    I know it’s a joke. If I was taking it seriously: I don’t want to spend several hours getting to a job that’s already say, an hour’s commute. And then storing the horse at the job and then several hours back.

      I remember growing up there was this Amish person who worked at one of the yokel gas stations. They would ride their horse to work and hitch it up for their shift, and then ride it home. It’s doable!

        That horse must have been bored af tied up to the same spot all day, bet he didn’t have any shelter for inclement weather either.

        Although now that I think about it, this was probably a common thing for horses back in the day.
