I'm riding the bus home from work, and my alcoholic boss is behind the wheel. Many of my co-workers are on the bus with me. The bus is swerving out of control for the whole wild ride, and I can tell that my boss is drunk. I cling to the top of the red seat because I feel like the bus is going to turn upside down. When I get off at my stop, I'm not where I expected to be. I feel stranded and lost, and I enter a large building. It seems to be a store but its largely empty with a few strange pieces of merchandise. When I come out of the store I have to wait for another bus.
