Seriously? Dude it is not up to the company to figure out how you get to work. You get to work by 9, you leave by 5. It is up to you to figure out how to do that. If you have to come in at 4am to miss the stupid drivers on the road, so be it. Wait in your car in the parking lot until 8:59 when you are allowed in.

That was the philosophy we used in school, it's the philosophy used at work. Actually in college the university was gracious enough to say to the professors that is the storms coming in were too much to go home to or to come in the next morning to work that they could spend in the night in the common area so they will be right on time the next day to work. It was a level 3 snow emergency in Ohio in which the National Guard was called in to remove snow and ice. You could have gotten a ticket for even being onthe road (only emergency crews were allowed on the roads) yet we still had classes on time.

Fucking pussies.

Actually that all depends on the job. Some places of employment are, to a degree, responsible for you while you are commuting to and from work.

extra angsty today, huh. you have snow removal equipment in ohio, we don't. derp. and now freezing rain has come down and there is 2" of ice covering all the roads. I just walked pass a tour bus flooring it and going nowhere in the middle of an intersection. thankfully there wasn't another car on the road. he stopped and had to back up a block before I lost sight of him.

fucking retard.
 
Not only do alot of cities in the South not have any sort of snow removal equipment people don't either. It's not like you can walk into a Target in FL and purchase an ice scraper. Equipment is not made to withstand the cold either. It's not like people have tires capable of ice and snow. Hell even clothing is limited. I know when I moved from Tampa to Denver I had to replace almost all of my jeans because the ones they sell in the South are a thinner type of material. Hell I don't even know if you can even buy winter coats in most places. I remember last year when we had the super long freeze in Tampa most people didn't have coats or if they didn't they hadn't worn them in so long they didn't fit anymore. I also know alot of older homes in the South don't even have heat installed.

If you do not feel comfortable in your abilities driving in adverse conditions, don't drive. Find another way to work. Do you NOT put on a coat when it's cold outside? You find a way to make it. It's not being a scrooge or anything, but it's the price of business.

And FYI that time at university were it was Level 3 snow emergency, there WASN'T plows or anything like that for 3 days. We were in a town of 4000 people so the national guard said we were a lower risk than say Columbus to take care of first. Commuters to the school took rooms at the one hotel in the city because it was illegal for them to go home just so they could make class.

I would rather find a way to make it to work than look like insubordination and calling off work because of the weather. At the time all jobs were is dire jeopardy and you don't do anything to look bad for fear of a layoff.
