People aren’t anywhere near as annoyed as we thought they’d be
We logged into Twitter this morning expecting a barrage of complaints on the #Tubestrike hashtag and were surprised to find we got anything but.
It was difficult to find a tweet from someone who was having a particularly bad time this morning.
In fact, it seems Londoners are way more resilient than we gave them credit for. Here are the tweets to prove it.
What a miracle! I’ve got a seat on the train to waterloo What’s this about a #tubestrike? No knock on effects for me! Woo #commute#london

Leaving early due to #tubestrikemeant getting to work an hour early and having a fry up to pass the time. Curses!

There’s something really awesome about seeing so many cyclists on the roads this morning. #tubestrike

Ahh #tubestrike; a legitimate day off from faffing over what to wear & an extra hour in bed. #winning#wfh

Strange thing #tubestrikeday – had the rarity of getting on a #Waterloo bound train at #claphamjunctionwith standing room and empty seats

So my journey to work (on a bus) begins. Obviously I am reliving my youth and sat at the back, with the cool kids. #tubestrike

Train has filled out a bit now. Still cool though. No hassle at all! #TubeStrike
