It's 20 minutes to 8 and there are 3 people including me on my floor out of 137 people who are normally here.
Stupid snow.
What's worse is having to come in early (like get up at 3:30 AM to catch a 4:30 train early) to make changes, making said changes and then being told by a freaking out manager that the change has to come out because he didn't properly inform senior management. Yeah, I love getting no sleep and wasting my time.
At least if no one else shows up and everybody is working from home, I can surf the net all day watching WRC video on YouTube, take a long lunch and leave early.

Yeah, who said winter was over. There is like 10 inches on the ground here and still freaking snowing. Had to drop my wifey off at work at 4 a.m. this morning and I sware I was the only one on the road.Money Talks, Mine says Goodbye Rob!!!!

We got 4 inches here in Raleigh and most people think we had a blizzard.

There was about 11 inches on the ground when I walked out the front door at 4:20 this morning and it's since started snowing again and has been for the past 3 hours. My friend lives closer to the Jersey Shore and he said they had at least 15 inches on the ground and they were expecting close to 2 feet before it's done.Expert Moron Extraordinaire

I woke up to 8.5 inches but I always do anyway!!!!

like that here (Andover, MA) too.
Not really that much snow, but visibility was lousy driving in (I have a middling long commute); wipers kept icing up. I hate it when that happens. -
I got the day off. So I got a mad workout in this morning and I'm gonna finish off the workout with a mind blowing snow shoveling of the driveway and all walkways.
I woke up with mad energy so I'm gonna put it to good use.Dan

I love the cold and the snow, I hate Texas. It's going to be 85 here in a day or two, that sucks.

I have a snow blower.
It has a beer holder on it.
Takes 20 minutes to do a 4 car driveway.
Then I go back inside where the easy chair is warm and the beer is cold.Expert Moron Extraordinaire

I stay inside as the snow plow guy comes early when it snows and its done before I leave for work.

That is great....once in a while...when you get a full year and a half of it you want to kill every living thing within 50 feet of you. When our fabrication plant was moving to Oregon, for a solid year and a half we ...as a team...had usually 1 tool to decommission each night for a 12 hour shift from 7pm to 730am. Each tool took maybe 1 to 2 hours to complete...but some 10 minutes and others maybe a maximum of 4 if there was a lot of bullshitting.
There was only one requirement...for safety no sleeping allowed....no hot female operators to pass the time with anymore...just around 30 or so type A personality tech's surfing the web for an average of around 45 or 50 bucks an hour. There was no streaming video at that time...so I brought in a receiver and speakers and using my laptop as a source for the dvd's had a working theatre going...the boss loved it...just said to keep the stuff put away until the office suits left. Even that got old though....
Have a kick **** lunch and enjoy your slow day
