Strike in Kolkata

Tomorrow is gonna be strike in whole Kolkata, nobody will work... So it is also about transport - metro, buses, taxi drivers.... so all the companies and food shops, cafes will not work too... I don't know what is it?!!! I don't know will we work or not, cause hotels works all the time... I don't know what about this strike, and it is strange why that it is known beforehand and people just accept it and ready not to work... haha ;))) In Moscow it is unbelievable such situation ;))) Who lives in Moscow understand what i mean ;)) People even try to make it (their plans to strike) as much secretly as possible and anyway government finds it out and deny any strikes, take people who are going to strike to police and this like each strike ends in Moscow ;))) But please don't think that in Moscow it is like that because of communism, we don't have! ;))) We have such situation with strikes only last 3 years may be... That is why it is so strange for me to hear such news in 3-4 day before and everyone just accept it so simple. ;)))) May be people just want to have additional day off? ;))) or we will have to work after this strike on Sunday???!!! Don't know, will write about it as soon as possible... To be continue...

On Russian:
Zavtra budet den zabastovki v Kalkutte... nikto ne budet rabotat... Takzhe ne budut rabotat publichniy transport - metro, avtobusi, taksisti... Ne bydyt rabotat magazini, kafe, mnogie kompanii...

(was built between 1937-1943). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howrah_Bridge On Russian: Konechno y menya vsegda est plani na voskresenie, tak kak eto moi edinstvenniy vihodnoi. ;))) Snachala ya sobralas na yogu, mesto provedenie ryadom s nashim domom.
