Commuter hell-th
I’m glad I’m not this guy. I’ve been that guy (minus the Yankees cap, handlebar stache and protruding gut… but humour me will ya,) and it isn’t fun.
The last thing you want to do when you return from a hellish commute is make dinner or hit the gym. But this is exactly why commuting is a massive health risk.
I spoke with a guy who has studied those health risks and outlined his findings on Metro Morning.
Here’s a link to his research paper.
And here are some of your responses and a follow-up interview about time management.
Now I’m going to put on my Blue Jays cap and make sure I sit upright on the subway.
About
My name is Jason Osler. I am a Toronto-based journalist with a zeal for telling humourous stories of the “every person.” My specialty is identifying and exploring social trends that reside in the subconscious.
The majority of my work airs on CBC Radio’s Metro Morning – Toronto’s #1 morning show. My theme music is “People Everyday” by Arrested Development.
This blog is a forum to divulge, discuss and dissect the moments and minutiae that shape our day to day lives.
In addition, I enjoy a good spring roll… but despise cilantro.
Yours truly,
JOpublic
