Subject: Re: Saturday 2-5-22 by CorvetteBob on 2022/2/5 10:56:08 After I wrote out my post on Thursday evening, I got a call from the union guy. Apparently only 25 showed up for 2nd shift and so many were calling in for 3rd, they sent 2nd shift home and canceled 3rd. Everyone in skilled trades has agreed it’s truly out of character for them to do that. I’m just glad I didn’t have to drive in that weather. Yesterday I braved the elements and did what I could to clear the driveway. Limited success as the snow was preceded by a solid glaze of ice, followed by about an inch and a half of now frozen sleet. But it’s passable. My greatest achievement for Friday was cutting paths through the backyard so, “the boys,” could find a place to do some business. Oh, I also found I was wrong about snow emergencies. Our county re-instituted them some time ago as the Sheriff then got tired of his deputies risking so much more injury while dealing with the traffic problems that weather brings. Now there’s fewer people on the road, and fewer snow related accidents. Gotta hit the sack, have a good weekend! |
