SoxFanForever Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Topic says it all. My office in Schaumburg closed today. How many other Soxtalkers were lucky enough to get a free paid day off thanks to the snow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retro1983hat Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Took 2-1/2 hours to get towork and I was the last one here. No snow day in manufacturing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 We are getting to leave at 12. Which is odd because it stopped snowing but whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Gleason Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 I could have stayed home today...but there is no way I was going to be paid for it unless I used a vacation day. But I kind of have to be here, so I do what I can to be here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilMonkey Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 If the boss makes it here, which is me, then we work! And I don't get stuck in snow. Wife doesn't get snow days either. Kinda hard since her office is 30 feet from our bedroom! Enjoy your day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowand44 Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 I don't have classes on Friday anyways but no snow day for SIU. However, Southern Illinois people are definitely afraid of snow, it snowed a bit but pretty much every high school and grade school in the area is closed.

Queen Prawn Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I wonder if the storm that is expected for tomorrow really will drop 6" of snow on us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The projections I heard this morning are upto a foot to the north and west, 3-6 inches to the south. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Gleason Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Being as far north as you can be, and towards the west, I told my bosses this morning to not expect me here tomorrow. I'll be bringing my work home with me and planning to work from home tomorrow. I've battled the snow enough between last year and this year, I'm taking a break tomorrow.
