5 Things You Should Never Do On Public Transit…For Your Own Sake

Never Get On Without Some Form of Entertainment

I’ve seen the agony in people’s faces when there iPods have lost all their juice. It’s worse than you imagined–30 minutes stuck with your own thoughts and stresses, burdened to concentrate on the various smells of fellow passengers (don’t even get me started on the funks you get after it rains…), and to stare at advertisements and safety signs until your eyes roll into the back of your head. If you were trying to find some form of entertainment at some point to keep you awake, make sure you do the same so you can keep your sanity. Guess you should have picked up that free newspaper earlier in the day, huh? A 10-minute romp on the bus is all good, you’ll make it without having a fit if you stare at your feet or play with your hair long enough. But anything past 25 minutes??? I would probably end up on panic mode without something to distract me.
