Well, I remember when I was backing from my work to home and was in course the Metro employes strike. All lines reduced your functionalities, and installed a truly chaos. The bus service could not absorb the great flow of people trying to back to your homes without subway service, and the main terminals and bus stops were entirely fully. In the middle of my way to home, I was in the Tatuapé station, where there were a great concentration of people triyng, like me, to find a better way to go home. In there exists a shopping center, where I, in middle of the pandemonium, decided to relax and wait more a little to back home.. so, I enter in the shop, walk a little inside, stops to take a coffee and buy some cereal bars and water, and about 2 hour later I go back to try go home. In this time, the things stay a little more calm, and I find an alternative way to finally arrive in my home, a little later, it's true, but is ok, at least I have not got so irritated..
Follows a link to a news report that time:

Hi Fê!
ReplyDeleteThe strike caused a lot of problems for the population, it lasted for some days, right?
But don't you think the employees had the right to be on strike?
Thanks for sharing the news article link!
In my opnion, no, they don't.. the strike was abusive, and the Metro employes broke a lot of well determined rules. They were truculent and don't respected the hundred of thousand people who had no decent way to go home without the subway services..
DeleteHi there!
ReplyDeleteI think that to stop by at somewhere, drink a coffee and wait until the things are less confused, is the best way to not get stressed with that situation...so I thing you did the right thing!
It's right Geisa, is matchstick who warms the head! ;)
