Well, the MTA may be going on strike. Since I have no more vacation or sick days left, staying home and getting drunk is not an option. So I find myself torn.
On the one hand I would like to see the worker's get more money and the MTA does have a surplus.
On the other, I have some experience with Unions and they are known to occasionally be a tad corupt, just ask Jimmy Hoffa.
Plus without any trains, buses or subways, I and in fact the whole City would be really fucked.
Any thoughts out there?
P.S. Am I just pissed cause I can't just say fuck it and stay home?

You might be pissed, but unions usually are more stigmatized than they actually are. I think that it depends on what they are giong on strike for....
