Today

So after a long time I had to take a bus. Bus strikes are very rare in here, yet these two rare events coincided and I had to bike which was long and up hill. On my way I saw a dude waiting in the bus stop. I told him (I shouldn’t have) that there’s a bus strike and he won’t move an inch by standing there. He said he knows but buses are coming one another. I chose to park the bike and buy a ticket. He said if it shows in the monitor (which it did) then the bus comes (which it didn’t). I didn’t know how longer to wait and if it is more likely to come if I wait more. And the talk I was rushing to was about perception of time, prediction of events and uncertainties around that; So quite the case of me waiting for the bus. Then at some point I waved for a cab and took it. We talked about the bus strike and he said they want more money. I’d heard bus and cab drivers have a relatively good pay in Norway. Then he started to take his time and drive around and do U turns to optimize his money on my time cost. I nagged about it and said I have to strike then! He didn’t care and finally at the destination said have a nice day! And that exactly happened. I am having a nice day.
