Stuck in it daily, let the car drive itself and listen to an Audible. Takes a lot of the stress out of it. It’s more relaxing than wanting to burn the houses down of the people who drive in the inside lane heading to Belfast city centre, then barge in front of all the nice patient, sound people who aren’t ignorant bastards heading to York St.
Now, now if we had six lanes there wouldn’t be a problem. For a while.
I see it as a prime opportunity to listen to Audible and podcasts for a good stretch morning and evening.
Funny enough, the flow would be more steady if cunts would stop changing lane everytime they think they can move an extra 10 meters than their current lanes.
But aye, we’re all pushing to get to a generic office block to do the same abilites that we could do at home.
When you build the entire transport infrastructure on moving cars (majorty single occupancy cars) instead of people & continually vote in the people who are wedded to this thinking … this is what we get. We reap what we sow.
There is not one chance on this earth I will go back to a non-remote role. Id sooner take a devastating pay cut.
i walk to work
The Westlink at 2pm on a Sunday
Get a motorcycle and filter through inbetween the lanes of static traffic, it’ll change your life.
Another reason for stay at home workers.
Aaaaah, but you **must** go to the office to build engagement and learn things next to the water fountain that otherwise you wouldn’t know
Between this and the M50 its shocking
Having grown up in mainland europe in a very walkable city it surprises me how many cars there are in belfast & (northern) ireland.
I know a lot of people that COULD just take he bus or the train (with roughly the same commute time) but somehow love to have 2 cars per household, pay a shit ton of car insurance and then also sit in traffic for an hour each day.
Personally I find it way more enjoyable to just sit completely zoned out staring out the window of a bus/train on the way to work, listening to music/podcast or reading a book.
Not that I should be talking though as I work from home, but whatever.
Whoever decided to put that junction at the northbound end going onto the M2 needs to be charged for every hour each person spends per year sitting on there
