Train strike - consequences
Feb. 8th, 2012 07:48 amThe strike on the train (and in half the country) meant I needed an alternative way to get to work today. Luckily, my dad isn't going to work today so I could take the car, but if the strike lasts more than a day I'm going to have a very serious problem.
Anyway, however annoying the strike is, it's incredibly fun to have the car - I got here in less than 30 minutes (even the best of times with the train and bus get to an hour-twenty in the morning, not to mention if I miss one of them and then it can get to close to two hours). That meant I got here via 7:05, which was totally too early - and even with a quick trip to the bakery to get something tasty to eat I signed in by 7:20. Well, I'll get some overtime today.
And, well, I'd better actually start working...
