on the way home from work today i got on the path heading toward JC at 14th. no seats, and no offer of a seat until at least three stops had passed. then the offer came from a little old lady. I thanked her, but refused. it made me so irate that next to her on all sides were able-bodied men who either looked right through me or pretended to sleep or glanced sheepishly me at me but then quickly turned away. it took every fiber in me not to tell one of these jerks not to get up. why didn't i? i guess i didn't have the energy for a scene. but i need to start being more aggressive about this going forward.
The whole reason i was in the city today in the first place is bc i promised boss #2 that i'd come in on thurs so we would have face-to-face time - something he made a big deal about. and i was completely blown away that i got all the way in to the office today only to find out that he was working from home in CT today. had i known that, i wouldn't have hauled my fat ass in.
Home now, in jammies, lying down and trying to let my frustration at the past few hours subside.
