What's happenin' in Oakland?
- The bookstore that closed down in the Dimond district is now a Peet's coffee.
- There appears to be a new(!) AC Transit bus line, the 1R which is a rapid bus. But I don't know where and where it goes between--I will have to find out. On that note, all the AC Transit busses I've been seeing look new and in good condition. Yay!
- Ongoing something or other between the SEIU (union) and Farmer Joe's. I don't really understand what the issue is or how concerned to be, but it's a shame since I love Farmer Joe's. I hope they're not really union-busting. This must be how people who care about sports feel when an athlete they admire is accused of using performance-enhancing drugs. (FTR The NLRB investigated the charges against Farmer Joe's and dropped them, but the union is still encouraging a boycott or something).
- There's a Flexcar next to the City Car Share cars at MacArthur BART.
