| When I were a lad...
We had snow, school was about 4 miles away, stayed open, we walked in. Uphill both ways it was too!
This week, monday/tuesday, plenty of snow here but still went to work even though my only transport at the mo is the 996 (which REALLY needs cleaning now!). Didn't notice anyone absent from our office - a few people were late, but all seemed to make enough effort to get there, so I can't understand why there's millions of people not showing up elsewhere. I can only think it's laziness, along with the 'nany state' culture we have to endure. |
