Put your feet up and relax! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snow-days#post-1309485 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 08:59:01 +0000 MrsKoala 1309485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I would have turned right around and went home. It's not worth possibly risking your life to go in! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snow-days#post-1309406 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 08:10:52 +0000 Dandelion 1309406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Champagne: It's not like you didn't try! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snow-days#post-1309402 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 08:08:52 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1309402@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: That makes me feel better :) The boss is just such a jerk about it. And it's hard because all the sales reps (10 of us) are spread out over a big area. So sometimes it's brutal weather where I am (on the lake) and not so bad for others. Oh well! He can be mad. He's not even in the office today so hopefully he won't even find out I didn't come in ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snow-days#post-1309399 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 08:06:29 +0000 Dandelion 1309399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm with your husband...and mine would be, too. You're pregnant, and taking extra risks for minimal gain doesn't make sense at this point. Let your boss be mad. Unless he wants to hire a helicopter to come get you, you're stuck. What can you do? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snow-days#post-1309397 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 08:04:33 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1309397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you ever feel bad calling in because of the weather? I'm in sales and live 70km from our main office. Normally I go to the office only on Friday as my territory is the city where I live. We live in the snow belt and get a ton of snow (5-15cm today). I was supposed to go in today to be the "sales person on call" during the holidays. We got SO much snow and the roads are bad so I turned around. </p> <p>I constantly feel bad though and think my boss is going to get mad. My husband told me it's not even work thinking about - it wasn't safe, I'm pregnant and I crashed last year trying to make it in on a snow day. </p> <p>FWIW - I'm paid straight commission, so going in today is a complete waste of my time/gas money and totally pointless (the last two years I have done this day of coverage and not one issue/call came in that I had to deal with).</p> <p>Would you have kept driving? </p>
