Anyone else off work because of the snow? icon_biggrin.gif

Why can't we handle snow in this country?
Every year it is the same, it always seems to take everyone by surprise. A few centimetres and everything goes pear shaped.

No.

And because I live close, other members of my team have been sent home before they get snowed in, but I have to stay as I could walk home if I needed to.

So I am officially p*ssed off by it!

There are disadvantages to living close to work...

I'm officially "working from home" today - waiting for the nice man from British Gas to come and fix the boiler. We've had no heat or hot water since saturday night, and I'm very fed up (and very cold!). Still, I have this forum to keep me warm......

Husband set off for work in York at 8am, and still has not arrived.....

I was quite surprised how easy it was to get in this morning to be honest. It took a couple of hours instead of thirty minutes, but traffic was moving from Stanningley and down Leeds Road.

When it first snowed just before Christmas I was outside having a fag and watching some African post grads who'd obviously never seen the stuff before. Always a pleasure to see grown ups turn into giddy little kids. I've just been out for a fag and seen the same people bitching like hell about the weather. icon_smile.gif

The main reason we don't cope as well is because the snow is rarely as heavy and persistent for weeks not days, also the freezing type of cold is also not so prevalent. Going back to the 50's & 60's snow and very cold weather was part of the Winter scene and as such folk just got on with it, certain villages around the Country would get cut off for weeks on end.

Very true. We also have the `blame` culture, no win no fee sharks who create a culture of fear around all the authorities which result in schools being closed at the first snowflake" in case someone slips and get hurt". In all honesty, I went to school during the fifties and early sixties when snow was much much heavier and longer lasting than nowadays and can`t remember EVER having school cancelled due to the weather. icon_sad.gif

Dunno how I'm going to get home now.

I set off from Queensbury at 7:15am this morning and got to L$$ds city centre at 8:15am. All roads were fine until I hit the M621 which was starting to clog up.

Stayed at work until 10am and when the second person (also the boss) made it to the office, he said he was leaving at lunch to get back to York and it had taken him 2 hours to get in.

The wife then rang me to say Queensbury was starting to get quite bad so off home I popped.

Unfortunately I can work from home so no real gain for me, other than I now avoid the craziness later if it comes down again

I've made it in I just left earlier. Working in Logistics I wish I'd not bothered as I am now in a world of hurt with drivers not able to make deliveries and those that can are turning up to warehouses that haven't opened due to staff not being able to get in.

I live in Brighouse but work in Manchester. Took me 3 and a half hours to get to Junction 18 on the M62 this morning, and then had to turn around (road was dead all the way home) because it was crawling on the M60 too. So officially working from home today.

Couldn't get the car up the road either, was sliding all over the place.
