You mean something like this? That's near the trainstation in Amsterdam!
I'm in my last year of university, but I've already decided that when I start working, I'll find a job close to home so I can walk/bike or use public transport to get there. I can't imagine having to start my working day stuck in a traffic jam for an hour every morning (and don't forget the hour on the way home too). Not even to mention the nasty fumes you're inhaling that whole period..ewwww. For those odd occasions in which a car is the only way to go, I'd join a car-sharing company.
