Lack of eclipse plan.

[Manifesto]

I'm just curious if the management at any building that will be directly affected by total darkness have even mentioned the event just two weeks out? My center is directly in the middle of the track and not a word has been said. When I asked my sup on my safety ride about a month ago he said he didn't think it would be that bad. Sounds like peak planning. Mondays are a disaster as is so I can't imagine adding eclipse dynamics. Good news is, I had the foresight to take a vacation that week so I'll be enjoying it from my porch rather than being part of the disaster.

Oh my God I might get dark for 10 minutes..

No way I could do my job and I'm kind of no way I could do my job in those kind of conditions

The problem isn't the dark. It's the gridlock on the roads.

This is true. My little town of 35,000 is expecting over 100,000 visitors. I get a good laugh out of thinking about all our trucks sitting in traffic not being able to move and sups losing their minds.

I heard some of the places along the eclipse path for commanding ridiculous money

People are always looking to take advantage of other people and make a buck.

For a couple of minutes you could just park almost anywhere

Just had a total Lunar eclipse this morning. There is always one of those within a couple of weeks of a total Solar eclipse.

Sounds like my little town all Summer long with all the damn tourists. The ones from Iowa and Missouri come up here for 2 weeks wearing a set of bib overalls with 50 cents in the pocket and go back home not having changed either one of them. They do keep the bull head population under check though.

Yeah probably very few people saw that at 2:00 in the morning

Apparently the company bought eclipse glasses to give out to drivers. Not sure if I trust them.

Maybe there will be wide spread cloud cover and ruin it for everyone trying to make a buck.

They are expecting about a million people to flood the Buffalo area as well. Not expecting much from the company, just planning to sit in traffic all day and get paid to do it.

What contingencies are there that you believe are being overlooked?

Have blind faith in the company! They care! Spent good money to protect you!
