So stressed out.
I have a slight vendetta against people who strike, due to almost being unable to graduate thanks to selfish lecturers at uni, and now the striking curse 'strikes' again. Hohoho. That was a fun final year, of not having a fucking clue what I was doing.
Finnair, who I am supposed to be flying back to London via Helsinki with TOMORROW, are striking. Basically no flights are going anywhere, bar a couple including my Helsinki-London flight, BUT WHAT FUCKING USE IS THAT IF I CAN'T GET TO FINLAND?!?!? Fortunately for me, I picked up a copy of a Japanese English-language newspaper on the flight back from HK today, or I would have blissfully rocked up at the airport tomorrow with no knowledge of anything. Skype won't let me get through to either Finnair or the company I booked with on the phone, so I have fired off a couple of emails and am now praying that it's only outward bound flights from Helsinki which are cancelled!
Bloody Finns. GET BACK TO WORK YOU LAZY SODS! This winter I will be working a 55 hour week for a mere 60 quid, do you see me striking, you greedy gits?!?
In less arm-wavy-ranty news, Hong Kong was AMAZING! Shall update with more details when I am feeling calm and appreciative of the nice holiday I had, aka when I am safely back in England!
ETA: While I was bashing away in RAGE at the computer, Finnair emailed me back with my new flight - Japan Airlines from Narita directly to London! Woopy! I take back all the horrible things I said about strikes!
