To ensure productive use of traveling/ waiting time, I make sure I carry a book or magazine. If it's not possible to read, I do some reflection and write on my PDA. Or I listen to music and space out. :) Wah, so complicated your forumla! :) My philosophy is simple: I focus on getting home safely and on time, rather than worry about getting seats etc. Getting on the bus/ train is good enough.

Believe me, it is very invigorating n gives me the peaceful 1 hr when I am on my own. It is the time when i collect my thoughs/ponder over anything n get to observe a lot of things, stuff you normally will not even bother in a crowded train/bus. Try it n you will never look back.

I've also been taking the last or first carriages in the train to work, and it IS slightly less crowded. I too am not expecting a sit each time I board, and am leaving work later, just so the crowd is not so maddening. As to walking... I have not gotten to your level yet. haha.
