I hope all the upper management for my company are in a van and it gets wrapped around a tree because they hit an ice patch. As some of you know, we got some bad **** here in Atlanta. Well today we were "open" so if you couldn't make it in, you have to take PTO or an unpaid day. This is because they're such cheap pieces of **** that run the company, they know if they have to "close" for a day, that they have to pay everyone...so they'd rather say everything is fine and dandy to keep it "open". But here is where it gets kinda funny. The Georgia Department of Transportation has said "do not drive ANYWHERE". All of the interstates are clogges up with jack-knifed trucks and this stopped the DOT from clearing the roads. Everything has gone downhill since noon on Monday. Georgia has declared a state of emergency. The police have shut all major interstates down and various areas...including all around my house. Yes these fuckstick ********* send out a message stating that "the office will be open tomorrow and you are expected to be at work. If you local conditions are such that you can, you must make arrangements with your manager. The forecast is calling for more ice overnight but with the temperatures warming up and the sun coming out and traffic on the roads tomorrow, you should be able to make it in". God damn I just want to strangle the ******* that make these decisions. The news, the state, the police the DOT and even my ******* bird are all saying that everything is getting WORSE. The malls are closed, grocery stores are open limited hours, NOTHING is open.....and these shitsticks have the audacity to tell us there is no reason we can't go to work tomorrow. I can't wait to find another jo...bet your asses that I'll send out a mass e-mail calling out the biggies in Denver and Atlanta and how stupid and cheap they are.
Here is the email these ******* sent out-
Here is the email these ******* sent out-
With many schools still closed tomorrow and a variety of hazardous road conditions in the area, we will follow the same procedures for Tuesday in regard to reporting for work. It would appear that once the sun is up and more traffic has been on the roads for a while that local travel will be easier and safer. So you may want to consider planning a later in the day arrival and check the news for reports specific to your neighborhood before driving in to work.
