your city probably won't add transit service when they suddenly force everyone back, but just think of it as more you time

I love sitting by myself in a steel box waiting for every other steel box to move 2 miles in 1.5 hours traffic congestion my favorite
Well, better to sit in a steel box by yourself than sitting in a steel box with a lot of other people and getting sick.
Sitting in a steel box where someone else drives, you get to spend your time semi useful. Either by doing work, reading a book, watching Netflix or playing games.
Yes, living in a country with a good network of big steel boxes, I sometimes also use them to get to my destination. A lot of the times they are rather full so I have to stand and stare into the air.
But mostly I am using my metal bars on two wheels so that I am not protected from nature and reach my destination equally fast, but full of sweat. But safe from people entering my personal space and spitting their illnesses into my face.
I think I once saw a documentary about this, where the introduction featured an average Toyota Corolla driver on their way to work... moving slower than a geriatric using a walker.
You can walk faster than that.
Yes, but car centric planning, man
Yeah, i know. My little town is shit for walking.
I actually in reality live in a really good place for walking and cycling, but I do understand the pain in the ass that is traffic congestion and "just add more lanes, man" mentality.
Billy, how do you want to make me rich(er) when you grow up?
I'd rather work in an office than food-service or retail. A workshop would be good too, rather not on-site construction.
In a workshop making shovels for those outside people am I right
A small shop couldn't complete with a factory for something generic like shovels, it has to be custom stuff. I used to work at a metal shop that did that, till earlier this year, as a design technician on programming the cutter and press break.
My wife worked there, too, but the company hit financial troubles. She found a new job at a shop making ducting and delivering it. I ended up in a bakery for a couple of months.
People that work outdoors are far tougher than me!
I've been a food runner, a cashier, store support, retail systems technician, and done tradeshow setup all across the country. There's a job fair at the Naval Shipyard in town that I'm hoping might have something I could do.
I don't know about that, we've got a local shovel maker actually. Probably depends on many factors whether or not such an operation works out but it's certainly possible.
I work from home, love my job and make a great salary. I also have ~10 years of food service experience and would prefer to go back to that than to hear my office-working coworkers complain about the same shit I hear in the monthly meetings every day.
