Opinion

Hey there, time traveller!

First off, it’s terrific to be back at work.

 I can’t remember the last time I was grinning as I walked through the doors of the Free Press, greeting people like Ebenezer Scrooge after his conversion. I hadn’t seen a lot of my friends in a couple of weeks because we had different picket shifts. I hadn’t seen any of my management friends at all.

But now I find myself scratching around for column and blog ideas. I hated being on strike but there was something soothing about living in a news blackout. The problem is I’ve got little to say because I’ve spent almost three weeks at strike HQ or on my couch or complaining to my friends that i miss work.

 Tell me what’s been happening in your worlds.
