Baby, it's cold outside*

Dear Snow,


My excitement at seeing what you've been up to all night was quickly squashed as I called the inclement weather hot line and heard the same aggravating message, "There are no changes at this time." I have a piece of advice, try harder. It's not that I don't appreciate the snow, it is like Christmas morning to me. However, try harder. You may have convinced the school systems to shut down and I feel certain even the mail won't be coming today but my boss is from Pennsylvania and no doubt drives an SUV. The fact that it is still snowing and shows no signs of stopping seems to have no affect.

My little snowflakes, you must learn to strike fear in the hearts of corporate America. You have to snow like you've rarely ever snowed here. You have to convince the Yankees that it's a lot of snow. It's the only way to get the office to close. In the meantime, I will venture out to work, unsure of if I will ever be able to safely return home.

Sincerely,

Certain to die in the snow.

Dear Boss(Big boss, not my direct boss),

My morale has taken quite a hit, you could at least say we could wear jeans.

Sincerely,

Someone who doesn't much like you right now.

Your work is lame! I'm not going to work. But my boss is in Texas and there really isn't much he can do to make me go in. I just send an email saying "I'm snowed in, I'll come in when it's safe" meaning maybe tomorrow if I feel like it.

1 1/2 drive to work
3 little slides
1 almost accident (seriously if it wasn't for the little chunk of snow I would have hit the person)
3-4 almost emotional breakdowns
0 customers since we have been open

elf? i know it's in that movie.

I'm so glad we don't have that kind of snow here. We did in my college town, and that sucked having to walk to class in that. Although, 1 hour away up in the mountains from my city, there is loads of snow...I avoid going that far out of town :)

Yeah, I put my life in danger getting here this morning. Phone hasn't rang much at all! When it does, it is a family member or employee. Why did we come in here today? I am mad at corporate right now. Our Executive Director didn't even come in!

LOL. well at least you tried to get there. maybe you should just show up in jeans cause it's too cold to wear anything else....that would go over right :)
