MMeM, Vol.13 Issue 27 – Morning commute

…same type of company as this right?

So this morning, I was running a few minutes late and got stuck waiting for the train again. Oh I’m sure everyone who works in the city has this happen from time to time. For whatever reason, you hit the snooze button too many times, you don’t hear the alarm, or you are just dragging but you don’t get across those tracks before that morning train comes trough before your office building. It’s happened to me dozens of times.

Moreover, it’s usually a really long train. Oh no, it can never be a short little Amtrak train that would be too convenient. No, it always has to be the long freight train with car after car of graffiti emblazoned works of art no less.

As I come to a stop, I look around at the vehicles I’ll be sitting next to for 10-15 minutes. I’m sure you’ve all had the same type of company as this, right?

No? Is that just a Midwestern, downtown, state capital, 7:30am thing?
