Winter is On!

Filed under: Work - Ric @ 12:20 pm

Winter is on! In the northern lands that celebrate Thanksgiving before Halloween, the white fluffy stuff is all over the place. And I’m not talking about the stuff you’d get stopped at the border for either. Sure it isn’t December 21st, it isn’t the official first day of winter, but when has that ever stopped Mother Nature before?

In honour of this auspicious moment, and largely due to the fact that I really didn’t want to drive in this latest dumping of the fluffy white traffic congestion creator, I used my managerial prerogative to declare a work-at-home “snow day” for my staff. Not many issues to deal with at Gigantic Concrete today. The Americans are stuffing their faces with turkey and all the fixings, and the Canadians are shivering around the space heaters trying to stay warm. Either way, no one is picking up the phone the report a network problem. It’s like Christmas a month early.

    Brown in the new white, west is the new east ;) and pretty soon Toronto will be calling out the army again to shovel snow.
