Waiting on Deval...

[mrsbro]

My boss said we'll be closed in the event that Deval declares a state of emergency or asks non-essentials to stay home.

For Sandy didn't they declare a state of emergency like a day ahead of time?
Fingers crossed for you!

[LoveTrains]

I just found out that my office is closed tomorrow. Woohoo!

[vtdiamond]

MBTA is shutting down at 330.

[vtdiamond]

Yup Deval just had a press conference. They also want people off the roads by 2 as that's when it's supposed to get bad.

My office is closed tomorrow, but we have to take vacation hours if we want to get paid. Thanks?

[preppy]

My office is still open as of right now. Seriously?

Is that even legal? Ugh, that sucks.

Seriously how is that legal!

Can you work from home to get paid? That seems super shitty to do to your employees!

WTF?! Not the whole day, right? I mean how would you get home? T is shutting down early and no parking because of snow emergency.

Oh and there is STILL a line of traffic outside from the basket. It's insane.

C is very much looking forward to building an igloo, though. Hurray for blizzards!

Be careful and don't break a leg!

[preppy]

As of now I am still headed to work in the AM as well. UGH. I am hoping I wake up to an email that tells me to stay home.

[preppy]

I woke up to an email that the office is closing at noon, but if we want to work from home we can. Not shockingly, I am choosing to work from home.

scm-I hope you get to leave soon and get home safe!

[jenikate]

Hope you end up getting out early SCM.

Before I left last night my boss handed me some papers, and said, here it was work for tomorrow. I stupidly mentioned that it wouldn't take very long for me to do that and he just gave me a look. I said thanks, and headed out. So I guess my boss is pretty cool.

Well hopefully you still aren't there since Deval has issued a driving ban starting at 4pm and unless your essential personnel you'll be fined if caught out on the roads. Apparently, that's only happened once before during the blizzard of '78.
