Anything goes on the subway.
Riding on public transportation can often lead to moments where the gentle rocking of a bus or train lulls us into a state of drowsiness, bringing about the worry of missing our stop. It’s a common concern for many commuters, but one woman came up with a unique solution to this issue. Instead of fighting the urge to sleep or relying on alarms that might not be heard over the noise of the commute, she decided to trust in the community spirit of her fellow passengers.
By asking those around her on the subway to wake her at her intended stop, she placed her faith in the kindness of strangers. This approach not only highlights a creative way to ensure she doesn’t sleep past her destination but also showcases the potential for camaraderie and assistance among commuters who are essentially strangers, sharing nothing but a common journey.
