Anyone else at work today?

I think Andrea has to, and I do...anyone else? I wish just once my work would just close and not wait until 3 when it's already terrible out to say we can go home. It is not imperative to our business to stay open this one day...all our sales are made with stores in NE, which most probably aren't even open today. Oh well, at least my class is canceled for tonight! Have a safe day everyone!

Re: Anyone else at work today?

  • I am. Woohoo. We were able to leave a bit early yesterday though which never happens.
  • I'm here, but we *may* close early ... I hope!!  Copper, my work is that way too ... it's like a badge of honor for them that we stay open no matter what and only close when the boss hears it's truly dangerous and THEN sends everyone home ... doesn't make sense to me!!  We don't provide an essential service like electricity, phone, EMS etc. so why not just close?  A good friend of mine works just down the road from my house and came and scraped off my car for me this morning so at least the day started pleasantly.  :)  Stay safe out there everybody!  

     

  • Right now it looks like we'll be open for my 1pm - 8:15 shift...yay! ( insert sarcasm her

  • It's days like today that I am especially thankful I work from home.  Our main office in DC is basically shut down.  I'm attached to the California office and I imagine they will be seriously questioning my sanity today when I could be sitting with them in the sunshine.

  • I'm here- insert sad panda face. I woke up this morning like a kid on Christmas, hoping to see the street outside covered in a couple of inches of ice. No such luck. The temp has risen enough that it's just straight up raining now, which was tons o' fun to stand in while scraping the actual ice off of my car for 10 minutes. So now I smell like a wet dog, and have the temprement to match. Thanks, Rhode Island.

  • I SHOULD be at work but because of T's ear infection, I'm home.  Using PTO but if the office closes today, like I'm pretty sure they will, then I'll use admin time instead of PTO.  Which is always good.

    T actually took her meds great this am.  No protesting!  yeah!

    Have a safe ride home if you are at work!

    The DC office is shut down???  WHAT? Crazy! We didn't really get a weather event last night, except in far northern Maryland.  

  • Yup, you're right I am at work. Our stores don't genrally close for weather conditions although I know some stores have shut down early before if there are no appointments and it's really bad out. I am lucky that I work in the back office, so it's not like I need to be here for customers like some of the other people here do. I am leaving at 1:00. I feel like a jerk, because some of my co-workers who have to be here if the shop is open will probably be here until 5:00. I'll get over feeling bad once I'm out the door though. LOL
  • Well, I told my boss I will be leaving at 1 ... honestly I just don't feel safe waiting till much later, my car is not great in snow :/

    They are still talking about possibly closing at 3.  I just want to get home safely and start cooking food, because for some reason blizzards make me want to cook and be domestic.

    Me too! I've been thinking about how I want to go home and make muffins and clean my house!
