That's life for many employees in HK. After working in the US for a long time, I can't imagine working at many jobs in HK with very rigid work hours and unsympathetic employers.

Anyways, for others, it doesn't seem that bad trying to get home at say 11pm that night by East Rail when it was still Signal #8 when many started their journey home. Few thought the storm would get that strong even during mid-evening.
