I work nationally running restaurants and it means I am regularly hitting the motorway at 5.30am or earlier, sometimes 4.30am.
Some mornings when it feels like middle earth waking up, showering, coffee and out the door feeling accomplished getting up and out so early and I hit the motorway within 2 minutes and it is FULL of cars. I mean three lanes of traffic always.
Apart from being demoralising that you always want to be first on the motorway, I’m always stunned that so many people are up and out at this time to work.
Lorry drivers and freight excluded for obvious reasons.
Has working culture changed where we are happy / have to travel at these hours?
Are you one of these? What do you do out of interest?
