Man, that's a b*tch. But at least it's not winter.

I worked those kind of hours over Christmas, you don't realize how cold it can get until you're walking around at those hours.

Well, this is Sweden

Regardless, that's too big a cut of your pay to spend on transportation.

So walk 5K in the middle of the night as an alternative? I don't think so.

Goddamn that Junter guy is annoying as ****. If I never read some useless, long drawn out post about Spain again I'd be a happy camper.

I'm talking about the uncomfortable hours pay. I get 4£ per hour extra for working night, and so 4h of night becomes 16£. A cab ride home would've cost 15£. A completely idiotic option. Besides, 15£/h is a pretty good wage for a 18 yo to just walk around in the middle of the night.
My jacket is warm as well, and it was kinda cool as well being in a city that sleeps with a geography that never sleeps. I'll post some pictures in the spring thread.
