Violent Spectre Violent Spectre Post Master Supreme Registered: 09/24/02 Posts: 12386 Loc: Niagara Falls, ON	It's pretty fucked up down here, but not too crazy. Although on my drive from the Falls to St. Catharines there was one car behind me and no one ahead of me. Could have stayed home today, everyone is cancelling their appts and my parts drivers called in too. Edit: Yay Boss just kicked me out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

furball furball Post Master Sr Registered: 09/24/03 Posts: 9485 Loc: Toronto, ON	... I've been at the client site since 8am... GO train was fine. Took 5 mins longer as it went thru that new 'Danforth' GO stop, but otherwise right on time ... Roads were slippery as hell, but were fresh pow... I was one of the first ones to leave in my area (no tire tracks) ... $\:\($ FML. Hearing about tons of GO delays, cancellations, etc... Hope I can get home ok/on time... Looks like my driveway's totally covered again, after the 15-20 mins of shovelling I did this AM.

phoenixrage phoenixrage Post Master Supreme Registered: 01/15/08 Posts: 50785 Loc: People's Republic of Ontario	made it into work, only took an extra 15 minutes vs normal. Made it onto the highway in front of the plows, so that helped. None of the appointments showed up and quite a few ppl called in sick. _________________________ Don't question things, everything is good the way it is and no improvements or suggestions needed.

iamfob iamfob Post Master Supreme Registered: 09/06/02 Posts: 24697 Loc: Out There	I shovelled before I Went to bed last night and hoping my life wouldn't be hell this morning. Wrong! Came out around 7:45am to shovel, did a lot but the entire street was not plowed. 3 cars drove by and was stuck (snow was as high as the front bumper). Took a break after 1.5 hour and went inside for breakfast. After breakfast I came back out to do more shovelling. The wagon managed to get stuck on my street, my dad took my mom's Caravan and he was fine. I took my usual route to go to work, took an extra 5 minutes but the highway was empty. I really miss my STi in snow day like today. $\:\($ _________________________ FTMFW!!!

JEFFOS JEFFOS Post Master Supreme Registered: 01/27/00 Posts: 29150 Loc: Toronto	I decided to come in because I wanted to have my laptop anyways and i left it docked for updates over the weekend. AWD and the winters made it easy but there is a lot of snow out there for sure. Cold as hell too. Winter sucks. If it was summer Id cruise in sunroof open, windows open have lunch on a patio maybe some beers I a patio after work. Instead it's this crap. _________________________ -Jeff

I fully expect her to panic, abruptly cut any pedal input...or even slam on the brakes with no change in steering angle XD _________________________ http://dreamingin302ci.blogspot.ca/ XD XD XD XD
