Faced with the day of mobilization against the pension reform, with the abolition of transport and the absence of teachers, the French must organize themselves and adapt.

Between calling on the family, the D system or teleworking, the situation divides households between concern and resignation.

How to do ?

On the eve of the day of mobilization against the pension reform, many French people are preparing for a day of hardship.

Faced with disruptions in transport and the absence of many teachers, households will therefore have to adapt, call on the family, the D system or even telework.

A situation that divides the French between concern and resignation.

Cycling, walking or telecommuting

This Wednesday evening, after work, the Parisians met by Europe 1 all have their heads on their Thursday morning journeys, like Babak or Corinne.

"Normally, it was planned in transport, but there, I will go by bike. I will leave an hour earlier at least to arrive on time", declares the first.

"To go to work, normally I take the tram. But tomorrow, thanks to the strike, I will go to work on foot," laments the second.

On the other hand, for some, it is impossible to move.

Telecommuting is therefore making a comeback for Isabelle, who will have to take care of her 6-year-old son at the same time because her mistress will be on strike.

"I'm going to work from home and not move around. Given the protests, I'm going to keep my son at the same time, which is super practical," she quips.

System D

For Thierry, boss of an SME in the Val d'Oise, it is impossible for his employees to telecommute.

So you have to be flexible.

"We are more tolerant to accept the delays a little. It's the D system as always", exasperated the leader.

However, it is not only for the workers that this day promises to be complicated, as for this Parisian.

"I have a friend who comes for tourism and we can't go to museums. We're going to restrict ourselves around our house," she says.

The Parisians are therefore ready for this day of strike.

But if the mobilization were to continue, it would be much more complicated.
