Let's see a raise of hands.

Off work for December Expiration? That's a funny one.

I may leave at lunch...depends on when NY starts to get hit with this storm

Times like these make me wonder why I still live in Chicago.

 

A Big f*** you to all you warm weather dwellers.

My boss said I didn't have to be in until 11-12, when I'm usually in at 8:30. The "work" delay is kind of nice.

ISU never, ever calls stuff off.

I'm at work....wife works tonight....one daughter's school canceled...one had late start today

I may leave at lunch...depends on when NY starts to get hit with this storm

It's officially my first ever Ice Storm day.

 

Won't be leaving the house tonight I think.

 

Hopefully the Subways don't get delayed or anything.

The subways should be fine depending on where you want/need to go

Unless you are a teacher or go to school, snow days dont exist.

Yeah hopefully that's the case.

 

It's just started snowing sideways down here FWIW. They were predictiing it would come at 1PM, not 10:30 according to my boss, so could be quite a lot of accumulation today.

Unless you are a teacher or go to school, snow days dont exist.

Or if you live south of the Mason-Dixon, they flip the f*** out down there b/c they just don't know what to do.

Whenever it snows here in MD, which is a couple of times a year, they kill me. It doesn't snow here as much as it does in Chicago or NYC, but they act like they've never seen it before and start flipping out just like I was talking about in my last post, except here there is no excuse because it isn't the south. They get a snow FORECAST and they close school for the day, wtf? And the afternoon or night before, the lines at grocery stores get long. roffles. The snow slowdown takes all of half a day, they act like it lasts a week.

Our CIO told everyone to work from home today. I am working from my kitchen table and its awesome.

 

 

 

I'm enjoying my 80 degrees, but for some reason I'm attempting to fly to Chicago tomorrow.

This is what happened here in Las Vegas when it snowed twice this week...chaos!

 

This kids here had a snow day yesterday and there wasn't even any snow on the ground!

I'm finding out that Portland treats snow the same way. I live across the street from a grocery store and that cracked me up.

At work.... but I'll be honest I can't wait to get out there and do rip up some sledding tonight

Not I.

 

Thankfully I work 5 minutes from home though.

Well just got told I can go home at 1 now.

 

Looks like the Snow is set in for the day though.

Thats not a snow day though, thats working from home as I am doing.

Yeah, at school in Ohio if it snowed an inch school was called off. We even had heated sidewalks and they still shut it down.

I'm one of the few people that drove into work today. Really was not all that bad, but the road conditions are still listed as "travel is not advisable".

Haha, like it never snows in Ohio... man, I guess I treated the nonchalant way we handled snow in Chicago for granted.

Southern ohio is pretty mild, but literally as soon as an inch accumulated, everything shut down. We literally had ZERO plow trucks near school.
