The London tube strike and working from home

Anyone who isn't at work is a slacker.
I live in London and the tube strike never stopped me getting to my desk bright and early.How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

It's normally possible to use train and bus services instead in London. Obviously services are more packed if tube trains aren't running, but as mentioned upthread, getting up earlier can bypass that problem. Still, one compensation for being benched/washed up.Speaking gibberish on internet talkboards since last Michaelmas. Plus here on TwitterComment
