It's not even all that hot out today, yet I still arrive at work a swampy mess.
What's the cause? Extremely horrible train car choice and a splash of bad luck to boot. While the Red Line is usually a little mild, the air conditioning units typically do an adequate job to at least keep the majority of sweat at bay. Today however was an entirely different story...and this isn't the first time.
So long story short, my new strategy for summer and other warm weather commutes will be to closely examine the body language of passengers as the train enters the station. Then, I will be sure to avoid the cars that are nearly empty and passengers that did decide to stay look like they could keel over from heat stroke at any given moment.
The other solution of course, protest the CTA until they install free deodorant dispensers in every vehicle! But then again, there's the risk of a previously mentioned (dig through the archives) irritant.
