My rainy commute in Portland turned around after one simple move

Used to dread the 7:45 am MAX ride, always soaked and stressed by the time I hit the office. Then a coworker suggested I leave 20 minutes earlier and grab a window seat on the left side, near the rear door. Now that same ride is my quiet time, and I actually look forward to it. Anyone else found a small change that flipped their whole morning routine?

Wait, you mean a WINDOW SEAT on the MAX is the fix? The left side near the rear door? I ride that same line and I always sit wherever I can cram in. Twenty extra minutes of sleep versus a dry jacket felt like a no brainer to me. Never once thought about the sun angle or the roof drip pattern on that side. That is a LEVEL of detail I did not expect from a coworker tip. Crazy how one little seat choice changes the whole vibe.
