Rubbernecking-------wait until you retire - you will become an expert at it. I've been known to follow a fire truck for miles just to see what's going on.

Sleeping 8 or 9 and taking a 2 hour nap helps.
That's why I call my sick days "snow days".

I'm on the call board. They offer me work heading to places like that, I pass.

Up here we call drivers who bang in on snow days "snow fairies".
I have been called a "snow fairy" on many occasions.
I've still never called in because of weather. Doesn't bother me to drive in it, I just go slower.
We had 3 snow fairies book off last night. The driving wasn't even bad here.
The trailer I usually pick up at midnight got cancelled tho, it comes from PA.
A bunch of OTR guys got hotels, cuz they were in the thick of it.

That's all you brother, we got plenty of guys who feel the same way which is fine with me.

No--not yet---I did try it once just to see what all the fuss was about. I'm a pretty busy man. I can't be walking around afterwards for 3 hours and 45 minutes with a stiffy.

Boss doesn't believe we have snow up here. He's 30 miles to the south.
