The way from home to the bus from bus to train from train to tram from tram to office and the same reversed after work.

Any luck asking for 1-2 work from home days per week?

Beyond that... I guess that gives you some time to try to enjoy the commute as best as you can, whether that is listening to music, podcasts, audiobooks, etc... or doing something else that's interesting in the downtime as best as you can.

Yeah I have 2 days home office, which is really awesome. The challenging in my case is, that the time within each part of this chain is too short to really settle for the moment and to long to just wait and do nothing.

However, as you already pointed out, podcasts are really great and articles of 10min are a good fit there. Beyond that it is really hard to work on something, which is why I added it to "not involves code" ;-)
