[quote=Anonymous]Technology has changed the work environment. When professional employees couldn't telework and businesses clearly shut down during a closure, closures were rare. Now, as professional employees can telework business and governments are much more liberal in calling a closure. Its generally a win win as employees don't need to commute, work gets done and deadlines don't move, and the lower traffic helps municipalities clear streets faster/ deal with fewer commuters. Most of the weather closures this year were not safety issues. The downsides are that it creates significant stress for parents without childcare as they try to juggle kids and work. This new trend doesn't help nannies who hope for a snow day because they have no work to make up and it really is a free day. [/quote]
