I have like, ZERO vacation/personal time and I'd really like to be able to take a few days off for when we move and/or take an actual vacation. We just got a lovely email from the CEO that everyone is really pissed off about.
"As we all probably know, there is a storm expected Thursday. Unless things change, it looks like it will be worse upstate than downstate. I'd appreciate it if all staff make the appropriate preparations. I'd like to encourage all upstate staff to make it in. Office/admin staff try to get in to work and we'll see how it goes during the day. It has been a rough winter thus far. But it will be over in a matter of weeks. Hang in there everyone."
He will not close the office. And last week? When we were hammered with snow on Wednesday? When there was a state of emergency and everyone was ordered to stay off the roads? One person came in for 2 hours and then left. The storm before that? At peak, there were 3 of us here. Again, state of emergency.
He is putting his employees lives at risk and couldn't give less of a shit about them. I am getting more and more fed up as each day goes by.

If possible, spam an ANONYMOUS company wide email to that effect: He is putting his employees lives at risk and couldn't give less of a shit about them. Additionally, recommend that anyone who comes to harm while trying to make it in, SUE his ass for endangerment.
If you do so, do it from a single use, outside provider. Some bosses don't take a hint without getting whacked by a 2x4.

So I planned to walk down the street to a burrito place for dinner because it was only lightly snowing. In the 5 or so minutes it took for me to wake up from my (wonderful) midday nap and get dressed, the light snow had transformed into a zero-visibility hell-blizzard, and it's only getting worse. Looks like I'm staying in here and eating ramen.

University closed tomorrow, possibly another foot of snow. Apparently the whole system got a late start but we've been getting hammered pretty consistently since my last post.
Grognard:
5 inches down now... and another 3-5 to come.
yay for having a teenager to shovel for me. :D :D :D
