I've heard alot about a protest ("strikes") on this Tuesday coming up, the 11th. Yet, not a word on these boards.
There are some regulars that must have some of the talk from the street - or wherever they get their information.
I've heard talk like this before, and nothing has ever happened - at least not in my 2 years, but this one seems to have a different flavor; school is all but cancelled for the day, the students are talking of big things happening.
Now, I don't take my feed from them, but like I say, we've had these murmurs before on the street, but the students have never been so vocal about it.
Oddly, the 3 taxi drivers I've asked about it didn't - or wouldn't - say anything about it.
Just curious if anyone out there has heard anything and would like to share it.
Personally, the fact that protests are scheduled events, made weeks in advance, is beyond funny, inching towards hysterical.
However, keeping in mind that Monday is a school holiday anyway, I find the schedulemakers to be not only funny, but brilliant and warm hearted human beings.
If this protest doesn't work out, how about we reschedule for the 26th, or maybe the 16th or 17th of December. That would work out well I think.
