Prospectives
Tomorrow Italy will live a day of national strikes. Not uncommon, here, but if you use pubblic transportation, it could be a problem.
Because of in Italy it's extremely difficult to organize everyone under a single rule, each city and each line has a different strike time and amount of hours.

FNM (northern milan train service), the train line I use, it's going to strike from 8 to 12 pm. Good, yeah? People who take fnm trains to go to work/return home won't have problem. Well, it's not exactly true. For example, I finish my turn at 10:05 pm, how I'm supposed to return home if the last train that arrives to Saronno is scheduled at 11:35 pm? Luckily I find a way to come home, but thanks only to kindness of a acquaintance.
Yeah, only few workers finish their turn at night, but be stuck at Milan for few hours in morning/afternoon it's a bad thing, but being not able to return home at midnight it's completely different. A coworker won't come tomorrow. If you go on strike for asking less taxes and more money for workers, be careful not to damage others' pay-packet, at least.
