I didn't really care before if the transit workers went on strike because I thought that if it happened(which I doubted it would) that it would only last a day, as they'd miss their pay too much. Well, now it's been three days and the union has started to talk to the MTA again, thank God. I now have three days to look for a dress to a party that is very strict about dress code; and since people will be wanting to come back into the city after three days, I can't even imagine what the crowds will be like.
I really hope that the union and its workers get what they want, or at least something close to it, but this is definitely enough. Since everyone is talking again, and people are speculating that a compromise will be reached this time, everything should start running tomorrow. I'll cross my fingers...
