The public transport strike has been going on since Tuesday and now even the railway people joined in. For a few hours. Trains are going smoothly again tho. They only ruined the morning.
But still, the city sorta ceased to work. I mean those lucky few who live and work around the metro lines are lucky, everybody else can't get to work. People are taking cars, some organize the "full car movement", aka those with cars write their destination on an A4 paper and place it on the right bottom of their windshield so other people can hail them like taxies and so less cars are on the roads.
Still, the whole city is a traffic jam, the smog is mounting and boy, am I glad I didn't have to go out so far. (I managed to shuffle my teaching hours into next week. I really meant next week.) I hope they fix this by Tuesday, because I don't feel like walking home from my doc - or from the other end of the city. I don't mind walking, but for 2 hours and climbing a hill? Fuck no!!
And yes, I do understand those guys have it bad. But are they worth as much as every other worker in the city? And no, I don't think so. I do understand they want a raise. But this is outrageous. Because of them others are losing their jobs and money and precious hours. No, I can't feel for them.
I wish BKV (public transport company) would just hire some drivers and make sure at least one frikkin bus would work on each line. I may sound horrid, but I fucking don't care, because trekking up this hill I live on, not to mention under 0°C is nothing close to fun.
So my message to you, public transport people: fuck you!!! I don't care!!! You dragged this on for days now, nothing changed, and we can't get anywhere because of you!!! You don't have the right to cripple the capital of a country and halt public transport just because you feel like it!!!
Go on a fucking hunger strike or something, just stop ruining the life of every person in this city!
Boy, that felt... not enough at all. ><
