I miss college because you have to commute to work
The commute takes at least an hour each way and I have to drive then take the metro. And while the length of the commute is annoying, it's the commute itself that I hate. Commuting is like being condemned to die by having your body cut into a million pieces, one slice at a time. The only thing worse than sitting in a car surrounded by other miserable people on their way to their miserable jobs listening to idiot talk show hosts on the radio is being on the metro. From the moment I set foot on the train platform to the minute I leave the station I become the most hateful person on Earth. I hate EVERYONE. I hate the fat bitch who's taking up two seats because she's so obese. I hate the old guy with dandruff because he's ugly and he's getting dandruff on me. I hate the young mother because she loves her baby eventhough that kid is so loud. I hate the girl next to me because she's awake. I hate the person who sat in my seat before me because they left a huge grease mark on the window. I hate anyone who wants to talk -- to anyone, but to me especially. And all of this is a shame, because as I'm sure you could attest, I've always been such a loving and accepting person free from condescension. So if I've seemed like a harpie c**t recently, it's because the metro's turning me into an awful person. And until I can afford to live within walking distance of work OR figure out a way to sleep in my office, this is how it's going to be.
