Time starvation

Filed under: Observations — danny at 12:14 am on Wednesday, September 20, 2006

Even the SMH has taken on this topic that seems to be plaguing every man and his dog in today’s society.

Check out the Frankenstein replies on time-saving tactics. Everything from changing your pants while driving (as in moving, not stopped at a red light), weeing on your feet in the shower to avoid tinia (is this true?), eating while umm egesting, and of course moving away from Sydney. No doubt more interesting replies to come.

Public transport (as expected) is posted as a major time waster. I probably spend 2-3 hours a day dealing with Cityrail and State buses - dealing with and not ‘on’ because most of the time is spent waiting for the damn thing to arrive. Why must buses come in packs of 6? Are they beers? Why must trains terminate at Lindfield? Why must the air conditioning be switched off on trains during the summer but work perfectly well in the winter? (Okay the last one wasn’t about time, but it sure makes a train trip feel longer.)

Haha actually the carpet is quite nice, napped in my office a few times already. Need a pillow though - my bag doesn’t really do a good job of supporting my neck.
