Rush hour

This morning I had to drive into the city during rush hour. Having worked remote for the past decade it was eye opening and a little bizarre.

On a high level it’s strange that a million people all get in their cars at the same time and drive to a 20 square mile spot with some buildings. It’s even stranger when half those workers could just be working from someplace else and not having to deal with the stress.

I know more and more companies are moving to a remote workforce which would alleviate a lot of the wasted time but more than anything it reminds me the city planners struggled to plan for the amount of cars on the road.
