Most people reading this had an issue getting to work/college/life this morning thanks to an unplanned, uncommunicated clusterfuck of a Bus Eireann flash strike outside Dublin Bus and Irish Rail depots.
A statement on the Irish Rail site this morning said there would be an “extremely limited service” on the Dart, while Dublin Bus passengers would also face “serious disruption”.
A spokeswoman for Dublin Bus said “almost all” services were not running, though services have resumed at the time of writing.
Regardless, it was a shitty start to everyone's Friday so we thought we'd lighten the mood with some funny reactions to this morning's picket nightmare:

Don't let the #DublinBus strike distract you from the fact that Kendrick Lamar dropped a new single.

Today will go down in history as the day Irish people stopped saying "thank you" to the drivers every time we get off a bus #DublinBus
