Thumbs down Who was late for work this morning?

Yes I was late to work this morning, damn RMT closing down the London Underground.

On a side note, this made me feel better http://www.backingblair.co.uk/london_underground/

Note though, if your watching this at work, turn your sound down so your boss can't here it, and if you have small children about you should cover thier ears. - Strong Language used! - You ave been warned.

A bit late in this morning, but now getting out of west London is a nightmare, and can look forward to more of the same tomorrow.

Hehehe thats why I left canary wharf and moved to Surrey, lifes so much easier when you can drive the pants off your car to work and cost less as well compared to using the expensive underground. Too many useless staff that dont do anything well in the underground.

yes, you should, committed, especialy if you worked those minutes and never claimed the time!!!

I am never late, start at 7am, finish roughly about 9pm.... but can be still working up to midnight!!

Alarm went off at 7.30, got out of bed, made a cup of tea and a bowl of cereal. Turned on the computer, picked up my e-mails and started work at 8. I brought some files home Tuesday evening and will be working at home for the next couple of days. So a shorter day for me, having cut out all the travel and having to get up early to get into central London.

Does the rest of the UK have an underground?
I make it to work on time every day without it.
Personally I hope London suffers for not paying these people what their worth.
