I’m unquestionably blessed to live in a super cool, young, and upcoming city.
I’ve only lived here for a matter of a few years, but it’s grown on me abruptly.
The only thing I don’t enjoy is the god bad traffic that surrounds and gridlocks the entire city, every single afternoon, however constantly, you are trying to travel only a few miles and yet somehow the venture will take over an hour. It’s the absolute worst when you’re just trying to commute to work in the day. The only solution I’ve found is carpooling to take luck of the speedier left lane, but that too has its downfalls… Namely, the carpooling partner I’ve found from my work and I have unquestionably odd climate preferences. She is consistently powering up the AC at full blast, and using the air vents that blow directly in your face. I’m continually freezing cold, despite trying to adjust my personal air vents to release as little cold air as possible. I literally shiver from my head to my toes. I wear multiple layers of sweatshirts each afternoon to combat the overzealous a/c, but then it feels like I’m sitting in a furnace for every second I’m outside of the car and pretty soon I’m dripping with sweat up a storm; When I take my turn to drive, I regularly inquire about his comfort and adjust the control component and air vents as necessary, but the consideration is not extended both ways! I don’t want to seem ungrateful, but the subarctic a/c is driving me away from my carpooling arrangement.
