Me too!
:\ That does suck. But, hey, at least you're making good money.
Dont know what part of North Texas your in im assuming south of the big cities which didnt get hit as hard but this was the highways around here around 1400 hrs on friday.. It was worst around the North part of the metroplex. My bldg had to work, but there were certain centers getting called back to the bldg around noon and some were told to be back in by 1730 hrs. I can drive in the snow no prob im originally from up north, but the problem is the ones that havent lived up north cant drive for smile* and make it extremely dangerous for everyone on the road, that and southern states arent nearly as prepared and lack alot of the equipment and resources because its rare down here to get snow. I honestly wasnt up set about getting off early for that same reason its just not worth getting ran into by a idiot driver.
s who slow down to 10 mph, because there's such pretty, distracting water droplets on their windshield; then, we've got the other half that are quick to blood boiling, especially when behind the aforementioned type, and in their pissary, they begin driving violently and impulsively. Heck even in perfect conditions these folks drive like h*** but yes I fully agree with you. My biggest pet peeve is people causing a 2 mile back up just to slow down to damn near a stop to look at a fender bender with police on scene on the other side of the highway lol.You should see Texas drivers in just the rain. It was sprinkling today, and traffic was ground to a halt. Like, seriously bad traffic. Horrendous beyond horrendous traffic. From barely sprinkling rain. We've got that perfect mix of stupid
I stayed home. We missed two days last week. That's going to hurt my bank account, but the value of free days off is priceless, imo.
I have like 2 years experience driving on ice, but I'd prefer not to if I don't have to. Really, considering Texan's ability to drive in anything but perfectly shining weather, I'd advocate taking every day it rains off, too.
Yeah there starting to do some sort of salt treatment on roads in Texas only on bridges. Tbh I like the days off over it because it hardly snows or ices down here maybe 5 days total a year last year not 1 day. But salt does work but it does truly rust the hell out of cars you can definently see the difference in the conditions of a Northern vs a Southern classic muscle car because of the different ice practices. I wouldnt by a old school from up north unless it was a weekend garage kept car.
I gained a pound or 2 this weekend.
