There was a time when my company did awesome things. Oktoberfest coffee mug.

Should have quit drinking sooner last night too.

Drinking this after spending 40 minutes on the line with my cable company literally shooting the breeze. The lady was hilarious and I still got what I needed.

I don't know where you're at in Texas, but my company is in Coppell. Their biggest issue last fall/winter was ice. I think the company shut down a couple of times due to the ice storms. I know I took a snow day in NC when it snowed even though it was 70 in Florida (where our other office is) and not snowing or even raining in Texas. :D
 
What do yall do for food in situations like this? If you live up north do you just make sure to pack some blankets,M.R.Es, and water every time you leave the house?

I usually pack a sleeping bag, smokes, and water. This time I had only smokes and some labatt blue lights that are still sitting in my trunk. If only I had my flask...




Holy ****.

Yes.





Serious? I didn't go back to last night's posts, but were you stuck there all night? That sucks bad. When snow is going to be that bad they should just tell you to work from home.

Yep. My coworker has been here since midnight yesterday, so she's got 12&1/2 hours more time here than me since I didn't get in until 12:30. I work in a group home, so there's no working at home unfortunately.

Crazy part is my house 6-7 miles away has like 5"

I'm a little south in the Houston area. Dallas area gets a lot of snow and ice compare to us down here. Probably we are too close to the Gulf.

I heard parts of Buffalo are getting lake effect snow amounts of 90 inches. :eek:

My work is one of the harder hit area. Happens every year, but usually I'm not stuck here for 22+ hours. Our plow service is gonna need something wayyyyy bigger if they're gonna clear the driveway here.
More hot chocolate after shoveling some of the exits clear.

Sneak-in a beer or twelve for me. I'm staying dry today after the buzz of buzzes last night.

Downing a water right now before I hammer legs.

Good lord man! I suppose it would be hard to work from home with a job like that. :)

Protein shake. Painters called 5 minutes after they were supposed to be here to tell me they'll be here at 1, then they gave me attitude when I asked if they can call me by 12:30 if they won't make it by 1 as I put my dog in daycare and I'll just bring her home. I am pretty close to bagging it and going with another company because they're dicks.

Cut them some slack. They're trying to navigate to your home in a snowstorm for Christ's sake.


:tank:

Another option for you is I can go down there, paint, if you offer to have beer on-hand. And I can kill two birds with one stone and bring that table home with me.

Mike Hess has some pretty good brews. I do have to agree, the cream ale on nitro is pretty tasty. Nice and silky smooth! :cross:

Whoa, you're just kidding, right? it is 40 and sunny here, no snow has fallen. ;) They can have all the slack they need and I want them to take their time, but if they simply call me and tell me they need time to get to me then I'm good. That is all I'm asking. I'm jumping from meeting to meeting and trying to be available to get to the door when they're here. I don't think I'm really asking for much. Hell, I even cleaned the walls, dusted everything, and patched holes for them. I just need them to climb that giant ladder to do the 2-story walls. I paint everything else in the house 9' down. :D


You can scrape my ceiling in my family room & kitchen if you'd like. Beer and table will be given. :D
