Here's to you Mr. Mexican Shower guy

So on my drive to work this morning I saw a new low in the morning commute. Sure we have all seen people singing to the radio, talking on a cell phone, women applying eye liner in their rear view mirror, and guys shaving with their electric razors. But on this great day, I witnessed a new time saving opportunity.

Sitting in his primer gray, late 80s model Ford truck was a man waiting to pull out onto Wall Triana from his apartment complex. While waiting for a break in traffic, he took the opportunity to apply his deodorant. Yes, sure enough Mr. Auto Mechanic (it looked like a mechanic shirt he was wearing) had his left arm raised while his right hand shoved the Speed Stick down the sleeve for a quick Mexican Shower rollon application. You know his coworkers will be happy to work next to this guy by about noon today. He may have added a splash of Old Spice too in order to complete the freshening experience.

Seriously though, does it take so long to apply deodorant that one must try to save time by doing it during their morning drive to work. Wouldn't it be easier to do that before putting your shirt on when you leave home?
