We received 9 inches of snow yesterday and the streets and walkways are full of ice.
There will be many falls, injuries, and lawsuits as a result.
A responsible and reasonable corporation would have advised their employees to stay safe and work from home.
At least I punched the clock!
Grow up
I have a hang nail. There’s no way I can drive.
Further justification for centralized US location in Dallas or Atlanta. Pack those bags!
LMAO.
@b9 yes, they absolutely are. If you deem the conditions unsafe to drive, schools are closed, state of emergency, etc. and the company tells you that you must commute anyway, they are 100% liable. We have some stupid people working here… ge-z
good luck with that

I'm in the SE. When we get bad snow or ice, the company makes us drive to the work center and sit there all day. It's too dangerous to put their trucks on the road but fine for us to drive our own.
Uphill in the snow. Both ways.
The human race has somehow survived for 300 million years. But now? This is too much.
We lived our lives in pain and discomfort and usually died by the age of 30.
People in the NE should be used to this. If it happened in the SE I would say yes, RTO.
Just WFH, who cares lol. Make them tell you to go in and then they’re responsible for anything that happens.
this is laughable. the company is in no way liable for what happens on your daily commute. even if in your own world you count it as part of your 8 hours. grow up.

You are now literally in a different season of life. Bye!
Workman's comp claims make an excellent way to punish companies for their evil behavior. Remember those soft tissue injuries. Neck pain, back pain, cha ching. Rake them over the coals.
What! It snowed in the NE? That never happens…
We have been told that if we find it too dangerous to drive in, we should charge at least 4 hours of vacation time so we don’t end up in report. Then we are expected to WFH 8 hours that day.
Need to use PTO if unable to come in.

Good Lord. People have been dealing with winter commutes for generations. They would probably be more flexible if people didn't try to turn every change in the wind direction into a reason to WFH. That type of laziness just reinforces why they've pushed RTO.
They don’t care. The more dangerous the better in their eyes. Potentially one less headcount to lay off. This is why we responded on the survey about health and wellness.
