The Red Line Makes It Too Convenient
Last Wednesday, I spent another day at Universal, making it the first week I walked the same gate each day. As much as I’d like to wander to the other studios, I can take the Red Line to Universal and forgo dealing with the parking situation at the other picket locations.
The only event that can qualify as exciting was a visit from the LAPD. We didn’t do anything wrong, but we’ve had various near misses with cars ignoring our right-of-way in the crosswalk. The LAPD showed up to monitor the situation and talk to any motorist who felt it’s okay to hit a pedestrian in the crosswalk, so long as they’re holding a picket sign.

Gate 3, in all its glory. |
Next week my schedule may vary somewhat, as I have some other strike-related projects I’m working on that might hinder my picketing availability. I’ll post some links to those projects next week, hopefully.
