Seriously? Another foot on Monday?

[noodleoo]

I was just watching the weather and they are saying we're getting another foot of snow on Monday.  Seriously, I can't deal with this.  I have way too much work to do at work and I need help, which I can't get working from home.  I'm so behind and my boss is starting to get annoyed at me.  This sucks.

The hell?

I told MH I was concerned about "Friday's" storm slowing down and "Monday's" storm speeding up and the two converging.

Apparently I'm a meteorologist?

(I dont want more snow)

I'm at work on Saturday because I'm so behind due to the snow last week!  I can't handle anymore snow days for a few weeks!!!

Ugh!!! I'm so aggravated with this snow. I wish I had paid attention to the weather before today I would've probably made some time to go into the office today or tomorrow. I can't work from home on my stuff so this is getting problematic to say the least.

[LoveTrains]

Well they have already closed school tomorrow around here. We have a parking ban for tomorrow, and thus, I will be working from home. Can't park on the street = can't go to work.

[elfinia7]

Yeah, all the local are schools seem to be closed. They won't announce if we will be closed until tomorrow morning but if we're really looking at another foot then I think they will.

[zeewifeandmama]

Shoot. Just called the schools here. Ugh not ready for another snow day.

We are open, and I have a program in. Fortunately, my two staff live close-ish, and they should be able to get there either by public transport or Uber. I told them I'll be there when I can. I figure I'll leave at 6:15 and get there when I get there. (We start at 8, but catering comes between 7 and 7:30 to set up.) I'm actually more worried about coming home, especially if it switches over to sleet/ice. Ugh.

[noodleoo]

Yeah looks like they are still predicting 12-14" for most of the area! H boss already told everyone to work from home. No word from my office yet. I plan to WFH too but I don't want to be the first to email my team!

[bostonmichelle]

Not looking forward to this at all. I'm supposed to have 3 clients but I know 2 won't show up. I'll probably go in for the one that may come and assess the situation midday. I was already getting nervous about tax season all these snow days are not happening.

I made it to work!!! The roads are awful. They didn't salt or sand anything from what I could tell, they plowed but I had zero traction. My two morning appointments opted to come other days and I'm hoping my evening appointment does the same so I can get what I need done and get back home. Sadly I don't have a laptop or anything I can work on from home so if I leave its all going to pile up.

[noodleoo]

Be careful everyone! It looks pretty bad outside!

They were so, so bad. It was manageable until I got to the Somerville exits on 93- it was like they'd just stop plowing. I'd also like to give a special shout out to the cockopotamii who decided to make 93 a 5 or 6 lane road.  Assholes.  I took the Pike instead of Storrow drive, and it wasn't much better.  I saw a van driving sideways up North Harvard. I have never been so happy to pull into a parking garage in my life.
It took me an hour and a half to get here, and I almost wish I'd turned around. I can't believe I have to do that again tonight.

H is all pissed because technically the Boston campus is still open. But he is taking a nap on the sofa right now...so he isn't working.

Thanks, Rock, I'll be ok - the trauma seems to be fading a bit. I didn't really expect it to be this bad, so I didn't pack a bag, but I could have gotten a hotel room if I'd planned ahead. We have dinner tonight, so I'll stay for a bit and try to leave a little after 6. By then, anyone who worked should be home already, and I can take mostly highways home - I can take 93 to 95 and skip a chunk of the back roads in my neighborhood. I'm sure everything will be clearer by then than they were this morning. The snow just got progressively worse as I was driving, and I think the plows couldn't keep up.

I did, however, have the pleasure of listening to a woman tell me how treacherous her commute from Porter was. I don't know how I managed not to give her the bitch please face. I just said, "Yeah, sounds rough," and walked away. *headdesk*
