It can be a train, long distance bus or even a flight journey. But my preference has always remained the same in the past 30 years – Window seat. Somehow I am never tired of watching this world whizzing past me.
Till very recently that pleasure was denied while commuting to office, for I had to ride my bike. The glad news is that has been taken care now for the most part. Most of my daily office commute happens in the first class coach of our suburban train. Needless to say I’m enjoying it to the core. I specifically took a first class season ticket so that the probability of seeing the world through my window seat is more there.

On the other hand, it makes economic sense too. If I’d to commute the entire distance in my two-wheeler, I had to shell out about 1000 bucks per month - three much more than what I pay for my season ticket. Not to mention, the shoulder pain, back pain, stress, irritated mood, risks of injury that come along as freebies with bike rides.

For now, there’s nothing like a  window seat journey - it’s sheer bliss.

For those who have a grumpy boss - chances are, your boss is riding his two-wheeler or worse, coming in his own car. Ask him to take a train if possible, my hunch  is it will make your life much better at work!
