I wouldn\'t be surprised if some did, however, if they did and the union/management settle this, those workers might want to find a new job anyway.

Day 2 --- Wednesday 12/21

Got a ride in with a friend today. We left my house shortly after 11 AM when the HOV restrictions ended. Bad move, all of the delivery trucks started making deliveries at 11 and the streets were clogged. It took us two hours and forty-five minutes today as opposed to an hour forty-five yesterday. So far I have seen 4 rollerbladers almost eat pavement or get hit/run into vehicles. If you don\'t blade more than twice a month don\'t pull your skates out of the closet and try to commute over thirty blocks.

I have started to contemplate taking the rest of the week off since I am going on vacation for a week after Xmas. It pays to have a good relationship with your employer.

Can we expect a daily diary from you? I\'m kinda liking the 1st hand experience counters from people I know.

i like the daily diary idea too. beats the bitchy calls i keep on getting from my sister who lives on the lower east side and works in midtown. all i know is that she walked 30+ blocks to work yesterday and stayed at a friend\'s apt that is closer to her office last night so that her commute wouldn\'t be as shitty today.

At this point i\'m glad I live in the suburbs..
Wonder what kind of things are going on in the streets during the morning and afternoon commute. Just people everywhere......Feel bad for the people with social anxiety
