I put in some extra hours at work early in the week in order to leave a couple of hours early today. I can swear that i heard the gods laugh mockingly as i then immediately got to spend half an hour of that time waiting for the subway.
That was on my way home, i had already lost another 30 minutes going to work as well so i guess i should have seen it coming. Sadly enough i was still one of the lucky ones, the passengers on a train going the other way was recommended to find other ways of getting home. Those that didn't get of the train at that time was soon thereafter ordered off and the train left, standing on the platform was a couple of hundred cranky and tired ex-passengers.
A riot was not far off.
Heaven forbid that the companies responsible for running the trains and keeping the tracks in working order actually come to terms with the fact that we get snow and low temperatures in Sweden when its Winter.
The first subway started running in Sweden 1950 and i am willing to bet that we had Winters then too but 60 years later we are still unable to cope.
Nil desperandum they say but i do.
