Well, everyone isn't on strike, but a number of the taxi drivers are, and it's wreaked a bit of havoc on transportation throughout the city the past two days.
The way Honeywell HTS is set up in Bangalore, we operate mainly out of three (now four) campuses. Shuttles run hourly between the campuses so that we can easily go between for meetings. Well, this strike has actually led to me having to cancel some meetings over the past few days because I haven't been able to get to the campus where I'm scheduled to be. According to what I've heard, shuttles should be running again tomorrow, but I guess we'll see.
It's interesting the effect it's had on IT firms here, because a lot of us rely heavily on these shuttles. Stay tuned.
