    I had a boss at my first office job that lived across the street from the office. A literal blizzard hit and he still insisted we all come in. I tried my best, but there’s only so much I can control. I left 1 hour early knowing it would take forever and I was still going to be late. I should have said fuck it and called off work, but I was young and stupid, so instead I called in to let them know I’d be late. When I got there I got an ear full about how it wasn’t that bad and he made it in just fine. I showed him a photo of all the snow piling up 5-10 feet along the roadside as it blew in from the cornfields. He acted like I must live in Alaska or something. Like bro how long have you lived here and you don’t know this is a possibility?
