Back on it

I'm sat on the bus and heading to the food factory to grind for daily sustenance. It's yet another day to get paid and take care of my family.

I started the day like I start every other work day. For a while, it kind of felt like I was cutting it close but I managed to gain two extra minutes that I'm pleased to say that I used wisely.

The good thing about my bustop is that it is right next to a park. So, assuming I get to the stop too early, I can simply sit on one of the benches to wait for the busy.

Simply sitting on the bench and waiting for a bus that l must add, takes no prisoners, is a very risky move. However, while waiting, I still went to the park to do some stretches.

I couldn't stretch at home since I zipped out pretty quickly and going to that factory without any warmup is dangerous. So, at the park, I did some light stretches to get the blood flowing.

I'd say I stretched for about 2 minutes before I went to the bustop to wait for another two minutes. The bus came, just as expected and now I'm enroute to the grind.

When late?

I have to be at the food factory by 7am and so, if I miss my bus, that's it. No second tries.

I've been mapping out a cheap and fast alternative to using the bus, on the day that I eventually show up late. The options are taxi, Uber or using two wheels.

The two wheel option is cheaper but it is also more stressful. I'll have to risk catching a cold before I even get to the freezer that I work in.

Taxi is more expensive but it will get me there on time. I certainly hope it never gets to this and barring something extraneous, I doubt I'll ever be late.

Getting a license and then a car, seems like the best thing to do right now. It's not even about this job, generally speaking, having a full license and a car opens up opportunities to get better paying jobs that are a bit far away. Anyway, for now, I ride the bus and the grind continues.
