Snowed in
I head out to work an hour early because of the two inches of snow on the ground. I thought to my self two inches is nothing I'll just leave my self sometime so I'm not late. I'm from upstate New York I know how to drive in the snow I should have no problem getting to work. I cleaned off my car and got out of the parking lot without any trouble. I pulled out in to the street and dove to the end of block sliding back and forth. "It's nothing", I thought to myself "It's just because I'm going up hill. They didn't plow all that well I be fine as soon as I get out of town."
It took me half an hour just the two miles it takes to get out of town. I passed two accidents and almost slid into a tree, and I still had 20 miles to go before I got to work. I said fuck this I'm going home. I pulled off onto the nearest side road and I made three phone calls. One to the woman at work that I was going to relieve, one to my boss, and one to Blue who asked me to call her when I got to work. Then I turned around and went home.
I feel kind of bad that the woman that was working the evening shift, is most likely stuck working the overnight shift as well...
But then I had a beer and played some Rock Band and I didn't care any more
