And stray animals.
Can you take calls from home?
That is fucked up dude, that is really fucked up.
Nope. Its basic inside sales btw, so it's not like we are critical or anything

I can because my sister's workplace wouldn't shutdown with any of the four hurricanes that hit Florida during that one year.
Companies are greedy.
Time to dust off that resume, you work for a bunch of grade-A douchebags.

Well, to be fair, I plan on using my day off tomorrow to call into call centers and get various things done.
So, thanks?
Also, the supermarket better still be open after work today.

Don't make me nervous! In the East Village here and have no idea how I'd cope if we lost power.
Just realized that this map doesn't say those areas aren't getting any snow, I thought the gray in that area was just map color gray.
Stay safe, looks like the tail end of this storm that was gonna barely spit on us is now skipping us.
New Jersey Transit is now officially shutting down at 8pm, with the last train/bus/light rail arriving at their last stops at ~10pm.
tl;dr version: GTFO or you better have a hotel room handy.

Wtf man
Yeah, damn. Making a bad day even worse....
I have never ever seen a snow map with 40"+ in Providence RI
Absolutely insane.
Luckily Providence and the state will be shutdown soon.
To find shelter not for homeless to eat...
I feel bad for my NYC brethren. I'm from NYC but live near Montreal now.
Give the storm to us up North, we can handle it easily!
The only parts that suck are potential power loss and then having to dig out the cars when its over. Roads will all be clear by then. Efficient as fuck up here and most households have snow removal service that would be running almost non stop making sure shits clear and accessible.

Nothing to report from Philly suburbs. The streets are wet so the flurries aren't sticking to it, but it is accumulating on my car and in the grass.

Some speculating the storm shifting east/northeast, though I'm not sure what this means for NJ/NY.
I can't believe how classic and text book this storm looks. It's remarkable. Already dropped 6MB in 3 hours.
Good lord, MA's gonna get it.

My company in North NJ has confirmed that regardless of weather, the company will remain open today and tomorrow. If you don't show up or leave early, you must use a vacation day. Even though I have a laptop, I was denied from working at home.

That's a call center for you. It has to be one of the worst or not the worst place(s) to work at if you are inbetween jobs.
Crappy pay with impossible working days. Days where the majority of the companies will say "we will quit working", these places just keep on going.
Boston has shut down.
this... this is the end then?

This really does look like NYC is going to miss the brunt of it, unless it circles back around a bit. Long Island and New England are going to get pummeled, though.

Gaf, recommend me beer !
Not really its within the 40 North/ 70 West benchmark for powerful storms and it's still developing.
NYC and east should see between 18-30in from this storm.

America runs on Duncan.
So when Duncan isn't running, America is shut down?

Flurries have all but stopped here in Philly. I eagerly await 6 p.m.
To get through winter/snow I typically drinker darker and heavier beer. My go-to would have to be Guinness Stout.

Well, when the brunt is 36+ inches, 18 is missing the brunt of it, right?
The last map I saw, on the last page or two, showed Manhattan missing the brunt but Queens getting clobbered.
To stuff in their coats/pants for added protection from the weather ... or to eat?

It's really kind of all over the place at this point. I just looked at NAM and it has me only getting 10 today but 24 tomorrow, yet NWS is still on track for 18-24 total.
