Depends.

If the role is in tandem with your career goals and you don't have dependants you might take the position.

Could be an IT role which would expose you to the intricacies of real world applications.

Could be a legal role, working with a senior advocate or highly respected luminary.

If you can relate to these examples, accept the job, knuckle down hard and work.

My little analysis:
If you work from Mon-Sat.
Let's say we have 30days in a month, excluding Sundays we now have 26 days.

Let's add #1000 for feeding(its not possible to work the whole day with empty stomach) to the #5000 transportation cost making it #6000/day

i.e. #6000 X 26days = #156000
If you substrate #156,000 from #500,000 u are now left with #344,000 as savings.

If you work from Mon-Fri.
Let's say we have 30days in a month, excluding Saturdays and Sundays we now have 22 days.

Let's add #4000 for feeding to the #1000 transportation cost making it #1000/day

i.e. #5000 X 22days = #154000
If you substrate #110000 from #500,000 u are now left with #390,000 as savings.

Now compare this #344,000 and #390,000 savings u will make from the savings u also made on your daily #3,000 hassle for a month. And draw your conclusion considering other factors too like less stress, having your own time for other things, etc.
