Yes, Waze sends me, and half the other cars on the road, to a new route which is also backed up.

Usually when I see traffic, I'm on the train looking out the windows feeling very smug

Fuck off, brand

such suburban problems. I live in the city and it's always gridlock o'clock.

Not if you’re going into work - the traffic will be the other way around later. I used to work out near the airport and it was generally like this except on match days.

I drive twenty minutes to and from work but it is always against traffic. It looks so miserable seeing all the cars pile up on the other side on the way home.

I had to do my job down in LA for 2 weeks, but they got me a hotel in Commerce.
It was awesome. I had almost no traffic getting back to my hotel while watching everyone backed up going home.

Nah, it should clear out by then.
doesn't live in a large city
I live in a remote area and WFH. For me, a traffic jam is when farm equipment enters the road, or occasionally when there is roadwork.
I've seen as many as five cars lined up waiting in those circumstances!
Congrats. Your ability to live there is heavily subsidized by everyone who lives near other people in properly dense cities. Car-centric infrastructure was built to cater to your lifestyle inside those cities, to the detriment of those who live there. The traffic is (minutely, minusculely) your fault. Mostly the fault of those who advocate for you, but you still reap all the benefits.
My commute followed the oposite of rush hour. I lived in the city and would commute out to a smaller town for work, whereas most people in that town commute to the city. So i was always going against the flow of heavy traffic. I recently moved to the small town and for the most part avoid the traffic except at the end of my day when i sometimes have to make a left across the flow of rush hour evening traffic to get back home. There are very few traffic lights on that stretch so sometimes it takes 5-10 minutes to have a safe gap in the traffic.
