I'm pretty annoyed. I asked if we're coming in and my boss said if it looks ok yeah. I said I don't know what it looks like because I live an hour away. No response. I drive a really shitty drive to work and no one else showed up.

I would have called and said "Call me if you need me, I'm calling a snow day."

I get 8 days a year vacation + sick time. I should know if I'm expected to go to work. This is insane. There's a dude who lives 10 minutes a away who isn't here.

I'm also that guy who has the 10 minute drive (in horrid weather). I'm at the office, hell I opened the office!

At the same time, I'm 10 minutes away, call me if you need me, I'm calling a snow day!

This is the second time where we were not clear on whether or not I needed to come to work. The last time I didn't come in and they were upset. This time we have a meeting and I said I live far enough away where the weather is different. Who can I call to confirm if I have to go in? They said my immediate supervisor. I text him to be polite because its 6:40 AM. No response. I call him, he doesn't pick up. Then he texts me "If the weather is okay go in". That's exactly why I asked if I need to go in. I live an hour away. ;'kljdfh'lkjndg'lknfgh

Worlds smallest playing for you, I guess you get to fart in everyone's chair?

I hate this shit man. Knowing if you're working is work 101. I don't understand why it's so hard to communicate it

It's because most people in your office just don't care about if you have to risk your life going to work.

I'd text your boss and tell him you're going home before it gets worse. If the office is as slow as it is here, I'd leave too.

You should send a note that says "Seems too dangerous to come in. Please let me know if I need to override my better judgement. "

Correction, it's how entitled people pay off student debt. I've paid for all of my student loans by working my ass off and paying off the loan myself.

Like an responsible adult.

You're just jealous because your mom doesn't use her influence in a non-profit to siphon donations into your pockets.

@DustinB3403 Yeah, I remember seeing that. Boy, if I would've had a house given to me and another place I could stay rent free, I'd might actually have some money.
