Bus system strike!!! - Eternal Allegiance

The bus system went on strike here. Now THOUSANDS of students and people can't get to work or school. I have to catch the bus home from school today and I don't know what I'm going to do. This really sucks!!

It really bothers me when people like that go on strike. There was a bus strike in Pittsfield a while back, which is where my grandmother lives, and I wonder if they even care about the people that fully rely on them for transportation before they go on strike. I realize that they have their reasons and all that, and working conditions might not be that great or whatever, but they screw a bunch of people over when they pull shit like that.

Argh. It just irks me, as if you couldn't tell.

^^ Striking is a last resort to ongoing problems.

I'm sorry, Ryan...

Well look on the bright side...'least you dont live in a HUGE state so that you have to walk really really far

You can call up one of my friends ova there and ask for a ride

Traffic was SUPER bad today. Backed up to where I live. Which is about 30miles from town.

School ended at 1:30, and I had no ride so ended up waiting at school till 5:30 till my mom picked me up. Really sucked.

Gosh, I don't know how you feel right now, but I'm guessing it sucks so much arse.
