And it's gotten bad again. General strike got called for today - most of us in the office here went to work. You know, because clients don't stop needing help because the labor unions call a general strike.

Well, there was a march on Panepistimiou (Eleftheriou Venizelou) Street. As of 1:45PM EET, it's less of a march and more of an exchange of fire.

Protestors have been throwing Molotov cocktails. Again.

Cops have been responding with concussion grenades and tear gas. Again.

A bit of tear gas has reached us on the 6th floor.

And since we're in the middle of the fire zone, we can't really evacuate.

As of 1:55pm EET, things have died down.

We'll have to see what happens next.
