Today is the first test of the way in which the Olympics will disrupt normal life for working Londoners. 'Transport for London', the body which oversees the capital's trains, buses and road system has already warned commuters that they may well face delays as priority on the roads is given to the transient 'Olympic family'.
One wonders how everyday employers will react when staff turn up late for work. Will they be understanding and forgiving, allowing that the dusruption is short term and in no way the fault of their staff, or will they threaten and cajole ? Will staff find their pay stopped and their jobs under threat if they don't 'pull their socks up' ?
Only time will tell.
