Man, this is no fun. Not fair at all!
Last time I took 4 hrs to go in on a Sat as somebody called out. I died a thousand deaths along de way.
I did spend de night.
This weekend I have to go in as colleague gone to Florida.
I am thinking, go in at crack of dawn tomorrow, like 9 am and come back home at noon; then sleep till sat 4 pm then go in. Roads should be clear by then?

Send for Toronto plows and salters etc, they don't have use for them and instead of gathering rust, you guys can use them

How people coping?
Heard Baltimore city banned all traffic.
I have been holed up in a Hilton 1 mile from work since yesterday.
Today, they couldn't transport me back to the hotel as it was "too dangerous" until a driver bit de bullet.
Don't know if I will be able to make the one mile to work in morning.
Hotel ran out of food. I didn't do it alone!
