So it is raining and generally nasty outside |
|
Supposed to have some ice and sleet and snow this afternoon. I work at a hospital and they have been desperately calling because they are shorthanded (I worked 48 hours from Friday until Monday). Should I answer the phone and sacrifice life and limb to drive to work--risking getting stuck there--or stay home with my warm blanky and hot chocolate and continue to ignore the phone?:evilgrin:

1. NO ONE can fault you for not risking your life or sanity. |

In the words of Amon Goethe, "I pardon you."
Just being silly. Unless I was in horrible financial straights and needed the massive overtime, I'd sit still and put on the kettle. MY days of ACTUALLY risking my ass for anyone I don't like are over.

But then, I work in a hospital too. If you really can't get there safely, I would tell them they have to have someone in a 4WD vehicle come get you and bring you home.
The sick people have to find a way there too, you know. :)

on a 2-lane road. Not sure I want to risk it and I really don't trust other people's driving. But more than that...that they would get me there and not give a shit how I got home,lol.

5. Throw a log on the fire, and don't you dare feel guilty. |
