hell no, we (can't) go
you may have heard about the labor strike that's going on across UC campuses. they started monday with plans for a 5-day strike, and as we round out the week, they have only gotten stronger in their campaign. on monday, there were a handful of green-shirted folks on a corner on the campus, by today there were tents and horns and whistles and signs. and honestly, i have been impressed by their efforts, and have supported their rights to strike for their cause. however, reality sorta set in when we realized that we weren't going to have trash service (okay, no biggie, i can walk my trash out to wherever)... AND when all the major restrooms (read: more than one toilet) were closed since there was no one to service them. and THAT is when i started to have a tiny bit of an issue. so now we have one entire building sharing 2 toilets on our floor. you basically have to take a number and get in line if you gotta go. and i have yet to find alternative facilities! so my days are tempered and liquid intake is measured until the strike breaks... or i do.
current mood: thirsty!
