LE VESINET, France (AP) - It's 5
a.m. and the windows of the govern-
ment-leased bus are already all steamed
up. So are the passengers inside.
Two weeks ago, before huge strikes
began paralyzing France, most people
measured their ride to work in minutes.
Now they're forced to rise before the
roosters for an hours-long odyssey on
car-choked roads.
"In France, we like to say, 'C'est la
vie,' that's life. But this is not a life,"
fumed Micheline Renaud, a Paris legal
secretary. Like other 9-to-5ers, she's
become a 5-to-9er with a killer com-
mute - and an attitude to match.
Strikes are commonplace in France,
but they usually last a day and target
one sector. This one, which has shut
down public transportation since Nov.
24 and has affected mail delivery, air-
ports, hospitals and schools, and touches
everyone.
Public workers are striking to pro-
test the government's planned over-
haul of France's costly cradle-to-grave
social security system. Unions have
revolted over a plan to freeze their
workers' wages and cut retirement
benefits.
"Everyone is more stressed, more
nervous," said Florence Gehin, a mar-
ried mother of two in Paris.
Public transportation remained para-
lyzed yesterday, although many postal
and telephone workers were back on
the job as the strike showed signs of
losing steam.
Pleas for private-sector workers to
join the strike have been largely ig-
nored, and many public services never
completely joined. Union leaders hope
to reinvigorate the shutdown with na-
tionwide protests today.
The transit strike has hampered food
deliveries, and grocery store shelves
are growing more empty each day as
shoppers hoard basic food like pasta,

News Analysis
flour and sugar. When the subway sta-
tions closed, the homeless lost a warm
place to spend the night.
Even animals are suffering; the Ani-
mal Protection Society said yesterday it
has several hundred more dogs and cats
than it can handle because people can't
get to the shelters to adopt a pet.
The focus has been on harried com-
muters, but striking workers have their
own hardships.
Deprived of strike pay, they're get-
ting by on personal savings until the
walkout is settled.

"I can always eat bread, and I may
have to if the strike goes much longer"
said Luc Dubois, a striking railroad
worker. He's single, but his married
colleagues with children are having a
tougher time holding out.
"Kids need more than bread," he said
picketing near Saint Lazare train stag
tion.
Christmas trees sprayed with fake
snow in public plazas give the French
capital a festive veneer. Real snow fell'
again yesterday, and though it was just
a dusting it gave desperate commuters
another psychological hurdle to over-
"nfl n
