Why is it that no matter your earnings you always have to commute with blue collar garbage on your way to work?

I'm convinced this detail is literally the worst part of modern life. Having to spend an hour or more a day sat on a seat covered in food and literal human shit next to people who are disgusting and giving you diseases is fucking awful.

How do we solve this problem?

Most cities these days are unlivable unless you use public transport, what with the congestion charging, paying for parking and the fact you spend 3x longer than you actually would on public transport.

No first class on metro systems and busses unfortunately.

I bike on the road, get sun and cardio. I win. If I get hit, boom hella insurance money. No gas, no worries. Bike costs like $20 per year to maintain.

Lice close enough to bike or walk, probably save more money even with higher rent when factoring in transportation costs

Fuck that. I live in a city of 30k near a mountain. I was born in a city of millions. Miss the culture, but I can visit easy enough. That many people suck. My commute is five minutes.

I also drink a couple shots of vodka before work (horrible habit, but makes work and biking more fun/easier), but I least I get sun and roast the calories

Okay but if you bike to work for let's say 20 miles in one hour each way, an average commute for basically the entire USA then you'd be burning about an extra 1600 calories per day, which would cost a minimum of $5 to replace for a few people and about $10 to replace for most.

So realistically this isn't very feasible for most people, save for the fact that you'll possibly without guarantee have less breakdowns.

But yea it's cool to have an opinion on things, however useless i guess.

>> No.10923145

Major flaw with biking to work is the exhaust pollution. Long term studies do not paint a bright future for cyclists and joggers. They conclude that the negative impact offsets the cardio gains. No fucking winning unless you work from home.

Step aside
Not a bad set up but I wear a suit to work and no way I'm wearing that shit then biking a few miles to my building. I'd show up sweaty and rekt.
Not to mention I dont need to be pushing my body hard when I'm on that clear girl Crystal during work.
Thus my Honda civic works perfectly, with not much spent on gas

I live in NYC and literally everything you said does not apply to me. It really depends on the neighborhoods you live and work in though. Public transit is for plebs and I will never go back.
