A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Been working remote since onset of pandemic. Never going back to the office bro. Couldn't pay me enough to share the roads with the rest of the grinders.

So many hours wasted in traffic.

I had to go into the office throughout the pandemic and I agree. All the rest of you stay home and leave the roads clear for me.

Meanwhile i quite enjoyed my commute to school on a 20-30 minute bus, it's quite unparalleled to begin your day gazing out the windows at a foggy morning countryside.

I hated it in high school. I just hated waking up early af. Was so glad to get a car and license. Then come college, I loved it again. Getting a parking permit, going into traffic with other people was a pain.

Moved to a place that was near a college bus route, never had to get a parking permit or get into traffic. Take the bus and relax.
