Tight Morning on the Subway

What a difference 15 minutes can make in the morning. I got on the subway a little earlier today. I had been boarding around 8:45, and today I boarded at 8:30. It was very crowded. At the Jianguomen stop, which is a transfer station, 20 more people pushed their way onto the already crowded train, and I was physically pushed up against all of the people around me. I rode the last leg of my journey fully pressed up against at least 4 people, breathing on the neck of the man in front of me. Similarly, the elevators in our building were crowded. I had to wait for 5 elevators to pass before I found one I could ride up. I arrived in the office sweaty and exhausted. A great way to start the day!
