Well, about two or so years ago we had a blizzard here much like the storm from yesterday.
Dumped about twenty six inches of globull worming on us.
Well, the road crews were so unprepared that many of them were still at home when the worst of the snow hit.
Roads didn’t get done, highways were impassable.
I was supposed to go into work that night and got stuck in my driveway, high centered on snow.
[This was a January snowstorm]

December that year we had yet another snow storm where the road crews sat on their duffs and did exactly nothing.
For about six hours.
Finally, after an unholy number of accidents and complaints, they finally came out to...
..salt the roads.
How competent of them.

So color me surprised that they actually were working last night instead of sitting at the bay or at home as previously.

Oh, and they didn’t shove crap into my driveway like they normally do!
*heart attack city*

Do you think they're concerned about being down-sized?

I saw a few snow flakes here early this morning. It only got to the min 50’s today. I had my heavy coat at the cleaners because I thought I wouldn’t need it again this year. I had to wear my rain coat.
