Today I made my conclusions from yesterday's experience and woke up half an hour earlier. I also went out 30-40 minutes earlier than yesterday and the result was dramatically different!
I used my advantage of boarding an empty bus and read my work emails during the 20 min ride to the station. Eventually, the bus became full, the driver even stopped opening the entrance door on some stops, waving people off to the next bus coming, but that didn't affect me since I took a seat on the upper deck and there it was all calm and chilly. You are not allowed to stand on the upper deck, so it is never crowded up there.
The tube station was half empty, I took the right train right away, it was also half empty, with seats available, and arrived comfortably to my office with total traveling door to door time today 40 minutes.
The main bonus though is that I have the annoying task of filtering through the emails done before I even reached my desk, and now I could concentrate on the important things.
P.S. This post was written on the Tube en-route from Highgate to Tottenham Court Rd.
