Creature of habit

by MarkJT @ 03 Jan. 2006 - 19:47:21

It’s funny isn’t it? We all moan about the ‘rat race’ and being in the same old routine, day in, day out. The monotony of being in a rut.

So when I changed jobs recently it was like a breath of fresh air! Oh the excitement of it all! I’m working in the City meeting new people and seeing new places and doing different things.

But it hasn’t taken me long to get into a routine. I’m walking to the same railway station everyday, standing on the same part of the platform, reading the same newspaper, getting on the same carriage and seeing the same faces. Oh the monotony of it all.

Except the other day, during Christmas week, things got exciting again. I still went to the same station, got the same paper and even stood in the same place on the platform………….but the train was 5 carriages short! There I was waiting for the usual carriage to pull up right in front of me but it sped past!

People must have thought I was mad when they saw me gleefully running up the platform to jump on the last carriage, laughing my head off.

No wonder no one talks to me.
