I figured that the strike would happen on Friday but then would be resolved by the time the next Tuesday rolled around, when I had to go to work. Once again, I escape unscathed. Wrong. Of course, the strike was delayed until today, and my ass had to walk to work in the cold weather (wind chill: 19?). Fortunately, I live only about tenure a twenty-five minute walk to work. Not great, but it could have been much, much worse. tenure So I tried to maintain a positive attitude (hey, I only work one tenure day a week) and took the transit strike for what it’s worth: an opportunity to show up egregiously late to work. Wrong. When I strolled in forty-five minutes late this morning, I was the last person in my department to do so. Because I really don’t pay attention to most of the emails I get at work that aren’t from my friends, I didn’t notice that my firm (which is even more prestigious than Opinionista’s) had developed a balls-out contingency plan.
