“WORKING 9 TO 5 – COMMUTING ESSENTIALS”

If you are one of the millions of working women taking trains, buses or subways to work each day, I doubt that you have this view. It certainly would make the commute better, but since you don’t, here’s a handy dandy list of commuting essentials:

• Big yet lightweight bag to hold your shit 
• Water bottle…with water in it
• Comfy shoes that you would be caught dead in
• Umbrella that actually works
• Portable charger…that is charged
• Hand sanitizer, don’t ask
• Two subway cards – you know you always lose one
• Breath strips or mints, share with seat mates when needed
• Gas-X, ditch the box but put a few in a pill jar, along with Tylenol
• Feminine stuff, you know what I mean
• Chapstick and never share, that would be gross
• Snack, something you love and most people hate so you don’t have to share. I eat prunes.
