A nine hour work day in a very hot industrial shop, just wanted to get home
Obstacle #1
My usual left hand turn to head home was blocked off by road construction, at rush hour? They were actually working at rush hour! Brutal!
Obstacle #2
The only way around is a fairly long option, where yet more construction was going on, at least I got by but it was slow moving traffic...
Obstacle #3
My next optional road home, also completely blocked by road construction! By now I'm getting very frustrated and angry, another fairly long detour to get around that one
Pudding on the "cake"
Last traffic light to head home, when cars turn left at the light, locals know that the best way to get through is to move over to the right lane because you might not make it straight through the light, which in the process does block the people turning right... I usually pull up enough to allow vehicles behind to turn behind me... The guy behind me was gesturing at me, I could see it, I hate to admit but I blew my horn a couple of times, and tried to indicate to him that he should be able to still turn right, he didn't get the hint... I probably shouldn't have blown my horn, could have made him even more angry, I was angry myself the entire drive home, note: I didn't break any traffic rules at any point in time
One of those bad days... Plus long work hours on hot days this week, and we have to work the holiday Monday, no long weekend for me...
