Not every job has a straight hours worked:wage pay schedule. It's called a salaried position, maybe you've heard of them since we all stopped breaking rocks all day for a living. Much how like many office workers come to work, screw around all day on the internet and go still collect a wage. When it becomes dangerous to send your kids to school, the school is closed - for the benefit of the kids, or so they don't get sued, pick your favored reasoning.

I work from home so I have no excuse - but I did wake at 545 to shovel the car out so I can take my wife to the station. At first all trains were suspended, then she gave me the great news.
You've bought into the BS. I'll trade cell phones and 4 wheel drive for 5 weeks vacation, a pension, and having one parent stay home full time, without a second thought.
Take a look at the numbers professor Warren of Harvard has put together.
I know this is a leftist site but look up her video on youtube about the middle class..that is, if you haven't already made your mind up regardless of all facts. The facts don't jibe with the rhetoric about how hard people had it 30 or 40 years ago. Those WERE the good old days, life WAS easier.
Technology adds to stress just as much as it makes communications easier...it just means that fewer people can do more work...think about how big secretarial pools were in the 50's and 60's, think about what a manual task accounting was.....now everybody just types an e-mail and uses excel. One person can produce what it took 10 to in an office 30 years ago.
Sorry for the off topic post, just wanted add that Elizabeth Warren is one woman who should run for POTUS!!!
there were no buses city wide. i made it into work but now it will cost me more than if i had stayed home. My front end/entire car is wobbling badly and needs repair because of the fight to get out on the main roads from my street..
Wish i had stayed home.
Did you hit something? Maybe you just have snow and ice on the inner side of your rims ala "My Cousin Vinny" when he was told he had "mud in his tires".

Yep, I bet that's exactly what it is. I had this disorienting "whur whur" sound about half way to my office. When I pulled into the the parking lot I saw that I had a ton of snow up in my wheel wheels. Knock it out.
^ same here, vibration is real bad when I get snow inside my 20s. The weights they put on them are so small - any little bit of ice/snow in there will throw it off completely.
