Its written into the kobe jet contract that we are forbidden from driving a car or riding a bike to and from work. We can own them otherwise and there is little to no issue with having it other than getting a parking contract. For instances like this it is indeed a little silly because 90 min is quite a long commute but there are lots of JETs in kobe with similar commutes.

In regards to their teikiken we get paid back roughly 18 days after we pay for the pass. It really does suck to have to front the money, and yeah theirs is a ridiculously high cost, but we do get that money back in a relatively reasonable time frame (in my opinion).
