It’s funny you mention this. A friend of my works for paychex and was venting over the amount of people calling into her to fucking bitch that they didnt get their paychecks in the mail. No joke.

Like I said before, if you have a giant sponge on your roof you better shovel it off because if it rains your roof is fuxored. Your snowy driveway won’t seem like such a priority when your bedroom is crushed with snow.

Yeah, get up there and have a heart attack shoveling your roof while your lazy neighbor does nothing, has his collapse, and will end up with basically a new house for the cost of his insurance deductible.

No one rewards hard work anymore. 🙂

This is the most concerning part of all this IMO. I mean digging out is a PITA but digging out of a house with a 2x4 through your lung is at least 10x as hard.

Light snow has started backup in the Northtowns. I had just enough snow where snowblowing was worth it.

If I could train his ass, believe me, I would. I’m not sure what the forecast is past Tuesday but I get the feeling it’s all gonna warm up, get soupy and gooey, then freeze like a fucking rock. This happened to me when I used to plow and turned what were bumper like snow drifts into instant granite landscaping boulders everywhere.
