Getting To Work Part 2: The 50m Dash


Here's another one that I love seeing during the morning rush: people who flip into lightening sprintmode as soon as they approach the stairwell to go down to a station. Though they usually approach with a bit of a faster walk, it's not until they are about to enter that they burst into a full-on sprint. Flying down the stairs! Knocking others over! Getting pissed at the others. Yelling, sometimes! Are these people just on like some kind of secret mission that no one told me about?

It's like, dude, chill. Just leave your house a bit earlier in the morning and it wouldn't be an issue. These trains come every two minutes, I doubt you're gonna miss anything. But yeah... people have their own ways!

And on a slightly different note, I got denied for insufficient fare today. My first 30-day unlimited ride pass was all up! And so to help stimulate the every waning economic gloom and doom cloud, as well as make it to work on time, I bought another.
