A crumb of happiness

I work in retail, specifically a department store, and it’s exhausting. The work always seems never ending. However, once work is over and I’m driving back home, it’s the happiest I feel throughout the entire day. Very little things compare to the feeling of freedom, and just for a couple of minutes I get to bask in that joy. It may be sad that that’s the highlight of my day but regardless, being a slave to capitalist America has this one silver lining. A taste of true, well earned and deserved bliss.
