Le metro en greve

Vous en avez reve, la MTA l'a fait : le metro de New York est en greve aujourd'hui.
A 3 heures du matin ce 20 decembre, le syndicat TWU a appele a une greve (qui est illegale aux US) pour la majorite des bus et tous les metros de Big Apple, faute d'accord avec les autorites... Un update en temps reel sur le site de la MTA : http://www.mta.nyc.ny.us/strike/index.html
On nous dit que d'ici demain matin, pour le "rush" du depart au bureau, tout sera remis en ordre.
Rien d'horrible pour moi qui suis a Hoboken, car le path train que je prends est independant de la MTA. Mais apres la 30eme rue, j'ai marche jusqu'a la... 56eme. Un peu froid (23 degres farenheit) mais on survit !

"More than 7 million people in and around New York City were forced to walk, find a cab, drive into work or just work from home Tuesday after more than 30,000 Transport Workers Union members walked off the job.

It is illegal for mass transit workers to strike in New York, which means the 33,000 bus and subway employees will incur huge fines — two days' pay for each day on strike. The strike is New York's citywide mass transit walkout first since an 11-day strike in 1980.

Bloomberg has said the walkout could cost the city as much as $400 million a day, and would be particularly harsh at the height of the holiday shopping and tourist season".
