[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Make Tueaday a 2hr delay (declared Monday evening as a heads-up with an explanation it may lead to cancellation so folks are warned)    so they can buy themselves time to see if the forecast comes to fruition. Then cancel if needed.[/quote]

That makes no sense considering the snow isn't even starting until at least 11.  It's not going to be bad until Tuesday night.   [/quote]

I normally root for us to stay open as much as possible, but afternoon snowfall is the worst. Early release is great in theory, but elementary dismissal plans fall apart because parents haven’t truly got back-up care and parents get caught in traffic, and kids end up stranded well past regular time.[/quote]

This is my first week in the office downtown this week (RTO). I'm 1.5 hours away at minimum before any early release is called, probably more with everyone else trying to get home as well. I'd take leave but I don't really have much to liberally burn. [/quote]

Tough titty said the kitty when the milk ran dry. You were supposed to have child care lined up even if working from home. Just have your kid do their normal childcare that they were doing whil you worked all day.[/quote]
You all are really just a hateful jealous bunch aren't you.  With an early release working from home you would only need to take 2 hours of leave.   Now you either take a whole day because of uncertainty or you leave at lunch time with everyone else and only work half a day. [/quote]

DP. This is what many of us have been doing for years. It’s challenging and disruptive, but you’re in good company. I have to take leave all the time to take care of my own children. [/quote]

Sure but how does having more cars in the road slowing down your commute to get home in time make your life any better?  [/quote]

DP, but :roll: [/quote]
