Me on public transport going home from tha club, surrounded by people on their way to work.... A very sobering experience...
It makes you feel so wasted being around sober people. Or maybe it's that being around other people who are wasted numbs you to it
I always felt that they are still wasted, just in another way. They're recently awake, on the way to work that for the vast majority isn't something they're excited about. They're drained and don't want to be there. I always thought I'd much rather choose my position in those moments than theirs. And I'm sure at least some see us (in this situation) and are envious.
lol my first professional job had me on the overnight bus network (lovingly called the Vomit Comet) at 5 am. It was typically full of people who were drunk or high but they were tired so there was no trouble. Everyone minded their own business and we lived in peace.
I wish I could have said the same for the pre-game crowd when I was coming home from jobs that ended 9 pm or later.
