Man, I hate DC. OK, I understand freezing rain is dangerous, and there have been some light flurries and even some snow on the ground. But, seriously have you looked outside lately? The only problem I see is the influx of people rushing home in case of bad weather. I think that is even more dangerous! Every government person leaving at 2:01 pm and every school closing early, it’s just too much! Plus, people around here get RETARDED when it comes to driving in any kind of precipitation. Sigh. Happy rush hour everyone.

One of my guy friends had this to say about it, and I have to say…amen!

Why does Washington DC insist on shutting down totally when it begins to rain while it’s 35 degrees outside!!?? In a city where it’s 70% govt employees, it seems the whole f-ing town gets to enjoy a “snow day!!” While we in the private sector are expected to remain at work. Meanwhile, all my friends text me and call me as they get banged up at the bars starting at 2. This is bullshit. I tried to petition my superiors for a “snow day” yet I was looked at with utter disgust and disbelief as they themselves had to go pick up their children from daycare due to the “snow.” So I am now the ONLY person in the office working while my bosses are at home with their children, my friends are 3 sheets to the wind at the bars (anticipating the same turn out for tomorrow) and my underpaid ass is stuck here in my bland gray cubicle overlooking the lovely alley view out my window, and left with tedious “busy work.” I need a vacation. My luck, I’ll leave for vacation and then it WILL snow and my flight won’t be able to take off…due to snow. HORSESHIT! I can’t wait to get home and fix myself a scotch on the rocks and watch Scrubs reruns.
