transit strike = court summons
A nice thing to receive 5 days before Christmas......
on the first day of the MTA transit strike, after returning from a flurry of a last minute Christmas related errands and discovering certain designated stores were either closed or only open after 5pm, after waiting half an hour on line at the post office to pick up a package that I was actually at home for the previous day when they 'tried' to deliver it; after picking up my bike which I had not ridden since the summer and which I had not ridden to the post office due to lack of information on how big said package would be, after deciding to walk alongside my bike with medium-sized package now clamped to back of bike whilst I pondered on plan B Christmas presents until my bikechain started clicking and demanded that I hop onto the pedals to fix the gears to keep bike in motion, just a few hours before I had to take a plane to England for my first Christmas home in 5 years without having wrapped vital Christmas presents nor having even started packing, half a block away from
my
front
door...

Women in blue overalls and grease-stained hands smile widely as they greet a customer carrying a broken bicycle.
This is precisely why they came to work this morning: to assist customers in need of bicycle repairs and to sell quality, second-hand bicycles at affordable prices.
Quickly noticing a loose pedal, Moreen Gaweses – a mother of two, grabs a wrench and begins to tighten.
“Time by time fixing bikes gets easier,” she says. “At first I didn’t know how to service bicycles. But after the training, I learnt. And as we’ve opened, I’ve learnt more.”
Located at CCN in Katutura, the King’s Daughters Bicycle Empowerment Centre opened in March to provide six women a chance to start over.
