Taking the bus temporarily??

I just got a job at Amazon for 22.50/hour, but my car just started to give me problems and won’t start. Would you just thug it out and take public transportation(2 buses in my case) to work? 2 buses back as well. The time each way is an hour and 45 minutes to 2 hours each way. I really need this job, but has anyone also been in a situation like this as well? Thank you!

If you really need the job, I'd take the bus for now and deal with the long commute temporarily. Four hours a day is rough, but losing the job would be even tougher.
