The Zereps

I looks like I’m going to have to stay home today. There is a massive transit strike going on right now between the MTA and the Transit Union. Negotiations did not allow them to come to terms by the strike deadline of midnight last night. I forgot about that this morning (well, for one thing I went to bed before midnight last night) and was walking to the subway station in 25 degree weather when Candice called me and told me that indeed that were striking and the subways and buses were not running. Since my work is about 6 miles away (in Manhattan) there is very small possibility that I could get there in any timely manner–especialy if you consider the 7 million other people I’d have to fight with who are in the same predicament. Luckily for me, my job can be done through telecommuting, so that’s what it looks like I’ll be doing today (and for however long the strike lasts.) I might actually not have to go in to work on my Birthday/Anniversary. Hurrah! 🙂
