In a few days, I've got an important meeting somewhere in the country. On that day, almost all public transport, in the entire country, will be down due to strikes. A judge has decided today that the strikes will be allowed to take place.
FML.
Now I have to either arrange a car and someone to drive me there and back again (and having that person wait for me for at least one, possibly two hours), or reschedule that meeting.
****@$%@^38#%^. And the government STILL can't figure out why NOBODY in the entire $%^@^@%^ country travels by public transport WILLINGLY?
There are only 4 types of people in public transport in the Netherlands:
- Students, who don't have the money/required age to drive a car
- Old people, if they can't / aren't allowed to drive any longer
- People who cannot drive a car because of medical reasons (like me: poor vision)
- People for whom public transport actually IS convenient, to and from work (a small percentage in the big cities).
