AGE: 29
PROFESSION: Procurement supervisor
LOCATION: Bangkok, Thailand

"My job is in the middle of some of the worst traffic in Bangkok. If I drove to work, it would take me an hour-and-a-half, but the boat only takes 20 minutes. The only delay I've ever experienced was once when the ticket taker slipped and fell in and we had to wait while they collected all the floating banknotes."
