Started driving to work. Went off the highway and almost into a ditch. Called my boss to tell her and ask her how the roads were, she said they were fine and to keep driving.

She calls me 10 minutes later, says that she almost went off the road (and she has 4x4), and tells me to go home.

An hour later, I arrive home and get on YarisWorld to say good morning.

Yeah, we got 6 inches of ice and 3 inches of snow yesterday. The plows haven't even touched anything.

I wish it was snowing here. I'll trade you the 109 we had today for snow.

Snow and ice are two different things. Snow I can tolerate. Ice just isn't fun.

Yeah. Most of the people were doing around 35, including me.

Then the assholes in their jeeps and 4x4 pickups think they can do 90 for whatever reason, but meh whatever. They're always the ones I see mangled with semi trucks or sitting in a ditch down the road.

I don't mind snow and ice inside of town. Just on the freeway it's a scary thing.

Is there a good paying job that has you watch TV from home and sleep in?
