Can I deduct the mileage I drive to work?

[smitheegirl1]

I don't use my car for work during the day, but I have a long commute. Just wondering if I can deduct any of that.

No, if you’re an employee, you can’t claim mileage for commuting between your home and your main workplace. 

You're also allowed to deduct commuting expenses between  multiple job sites during the same day. For example, if you go directly from your day job to your evening job, you can deduct the commute between those 2 job sites. But if you first go home and then leave to go to your second job, that can't be deducted.
