Snowblower drivers are assholes. They almost never use their side gate and intentionally block drives and push snow into places people worked hard to clear.
When I first moved up north, I was all excited the first time it snowed. I had to be at work at 6, so I slowly made my way out of the neighborhood to the plowed main road and went in. During the day, the snowplow buried my driveway. The sun came out and softened the snow just enough to turn it into a solid block of ice. It took me an hour to clear. This happened every week or two for several months. I couldn’t get out of there fast enough. No wonder Yankees are so pissy all the time.
#5 ... Snow plow operators in my town on Long Island tend to be total assholes who delight in plowing in driveways in the wee hours out of petty spite...while earning triple time. Telling them to slow down will get you a dirty look and a middle finger.
Back in the 90s, there was a radio Crime Stoppers report asking for information about some "random vandalism." Apparently, two plow truck drivers had stopped for lunch, and when they returned to their trucks, all of the headlights, mirrors and windows were smashed by "person or persons unknown." It was a pretty busy place, and for some reason, no one seen a thing.
Don't live on Long Island, not an asshole. I will slow down if there is someone out clearing their driveway. Never ever intentionally hit a mailbox or a snowblower. That said, the shit's gotta go somewhere, and with passing several hundred driveways while plowing the route there's no way I can stop and clear out the end of yours. Winter sucks. Acquire the tools to deal with it if you're going to live in the colder climate areas. What do I do when I'm done plowing the street? I go home and deal with the shit someone else plowed onto my own driveway.
#2 is probably going to remember that day at the ballpark long into old age.
ReplyDeletemissed it by THAT much
DeleteHe'll probably have some cool looking x-rays to help him recall it
Delete#9 Haven't seen or played with one of them since I was a little kid. Ya don't see Tops anymore either. I was pretty good with one of them.
ReplyDelete#5 And the the city will fine you for not having your sidewalk cleared.
ReplyDeleteI would get rid of my sidewalk.
DeleteI wouldn't live where it snowed like that.
DeleteOnly a dumbass blows it out on the street

DeleteI've always said that snow is God's way of saying "Not fit for human habitation".

DeleteWell Chad, we're pissy in the summer too because there isn't any snow to keep the flatlandahs away.

ReplyDeleteNever knew there were plows on Long Island... are they on anything larger than a 1-ton?
