Default Our city is a mess...

Sorry guys I need a good rant...

I really don't understand what is wrong with our city, but currently we are in week 5 of a transit strike, our professors at the university are very likely going on strike, on top of that the union at the university that controls security, janitors & IT people are also talking of going on strike. The water commission has been threatening, haven't heard much about them, and our health care workers are also talking about going.... REALLY!

I thankfully have a car, so the transit strike has just been a nuisance for me, cause I usually bus to work (I work for the university as a teaching assistant) I have just been driving, but I've now had to pay meter fees all day or go out every 2 hours to move my car into a new 2 hour parking spot. But now my bosses and professors are going on strike???UGH. Apparently I'll still get paid unless the admin staff who do payroll go on strike.

I just don't understand why our entire city fell apart all at once. Plus it's totally going to suck if our graduation is postponed.

Sorry totally needed to get that out. I can't really verbalize my frustration here (at home) because I'm a teaching assistant and technically I should be supporting my bosses, but it still just royally SUCKS.
