Everyday I take the subway to work.
- I could drive, but it’s a lot cheaper to take the subway and I don’t have to deal with traffic and other cars on the highway.
If I was to commute taking my car, it would probably take me twice as long to get to the city. I use my time on the subway to get ready for the day of business. I read the newspaper and check my emails. I check on the stock prices for the day and I look at the Wall Street Journal. There are always other business people on the train. Every once in a while there will be a young person headed to work. There was someone on the train yesterday and the person was rolling marijuana joints in their seat. I’ve never seen anyone get out marijuana on the subway like it was no big deal. Even though marijuana products are legal in this state, you still can’t smoke in public or use marijuana products anywhere other than your private residence. I looked around at a couple of other people. They could see that the guy was rolling marijuana joints too, but no one wanted to say anything to the train conductor. The young guy continued rolling marijuana joints all the way up until the time that he got off the train. He must have rolled 20 or 30 joints during the 1 hour trip. The guy wasn’t the least bit worried about getting caught and he didn’t seem very interested in anything except what he had going on in front of him.
