The closed the UNT Denton campus last night. Thought that was odd. But my work is still open :( It is always open :(
Sittin at the office. There are maybee 20 cars in the parking lot.
Well I can tell you there is no IT support at the Dallas Fannie Mae office today. The rest of the guys and I decided not to come in. Looks like a good day to catch up on "training" and Black Ops.
I'm working from home today. Just not worth taking the risk in weather like this.
I wonder how this will affect press day for 5000 reporters for the super bowl.
Same here.Quote:

I think this the first weather day I've ever taken. Just not worth the hassle to find a ghost town at work.
Not even gonna make an attempt to get downtown. Have the laptop and drawings I can work on from home.
working from home, office day on Tuesdays, just conference in for meetings, business as usual till the ice clears
Apparently the weather is supposed to stay below 20* all day, so I don't think the ice is going anywhere. We might have a snow day tomorrow too.
Got an automated call from the office saying it was closed until noon. Boss said don't go in at all. Working from home today!
There are 23 people total in the building right now. That includes the 7 from IT that are here. Even my boss is at home. he never works from home.
Maybee they will let us leave here soon.
6 inches out here in the sticks
I drove halfway in to work from Euless in the Element, very slowly. At a downhill intersection I managed to slide completely through a redlight at less than 5mph... almost sideways. Turned around and went home.
I have some critical stuff going on today, tried to log in and good ole Time Warner decided to sh*t the bed again. Now i'm tethering from my cellphone to the laptop, VPN into my work PC, virtual desktop from there into about 4 servers...all through my cell phone. Technology is amazing nowadays.
The west must have got hit harder than the east. Couple of my coworkers, including my boss, made it into the office just fine. My boss drove all the way to Coppell from Rowlett "I just hit a little slush, no big deal." It took me almost 10 minutes to get out of my own neighborhood here in Euless.
Niece called a while ago. She lives less than a mile from her work. When she went out this morning, her battery was dead. She decided to walk to work. After she fell down the third time before getting out of her apartment complex she went back inside, called her bosses and put an ice pack on her twisted ankle.
Yesterday, I told the people I was meeting in downtown Dallas this morning that it wasn't happening.
So far, I have been very productive from home today. No, really. It could happen.
Working from home through VPN as usual, but hoping that I get afflicted with the VPN problems that seem to be hitting everyone else at work. Grrrrr.
