“When the blizzard hits, why are we still commuting?”
What a stupid #%&$. It is because in the real world there is more to do besides flapping your mouth and using your office to commit fraud and theft with your laptop. In the real world equipment must be serviced and fixed, fuel extracted, food delivered, etc. and if those people didn’t go to work you would sit freezing in the dark eating your fur babies.
Anyone who worked remotely for weeks, months, or even years during the COVID fiasco obviously did not need to be in a workplace to get the job done.
The government leaders who imposed those lockdowns -- and the business leaders who went along with them -- completely destroyed their credibility over that. This is why nobody with half a brain takes any of them seriously anymore.
Biden signed authorization for Democrats to work at home.
Food delivery? Outside metropolitan areas, there is no such thing. People have to get off their butts and figure out what that big cube thing is in their kitchens so they don’t put a poor delivery person’s life in danger over an order of Little Debbie snacks. Oh, no, how do people outside the city limits survive without a $tarbuck$ around the corner?!?
Our tummies have been warm with baked potatoes and chili, nuked frozen pinto beans yesterday and will turn it into rice and beans tomorrow. Today is from scratch ham and cheese rolls. Thursday will be sooo much work, NOT, pulling out frozen homemade stock and tossing in frozen artisan hand chopped (yeah, use a knife, you know, that sharp pointy utensil found in a drawer) for a nice warm soup. Friday, is finishing up the leftovers from the week.
I remember driving in snow in the DC area one time to tend my cell cultures! There were not too many snow storms in that area, however.
I usually say: “If it snow, I don’t go!”
