The early-morning drive to a job like “ICU nurse” guides the driver’s soul, Dante-like, through an exquisite and terrifying menagerie of emotions. This mix will help your daily ego-journey stay on tempo, smoothly transitioning you from “What a beautiful morning to fight the good fight,” through “the life of one such as I is a melancholy life,” to, “look at everything I do for you, world, and the tears shimmering in my eyes are the only payment I ask,” just as you pull into the lot.
