    The road to get into our town is bonkers. They close the road from gusts sometimes cause trucks will literally tip over.

    Our town name roughly translates to The Steep Climb or something like that, mountain livinggggggg.

    This is where I lived last Winter.

    It was regularly -20 degrees outside, constantly snowing, and the town was too small to have the roads regularly dealt with (and the sidewalks weren't dealt with at all). You would literally be walking about 4 feet higher than the sidewalk height if you decided to take a walk.

    Truckers would get stuck in town because the Interstate was closed for weeks at a time.

    The wording seems so vague and unclear that I think the batch would be expired by the time I figured out how to do it properly.

    Low pay and people have been reporting rejects with no reason given why it's rejected.

    That's bonkers dude! I would be vexxed AF with that type of situation. I'm guessing you don't plan to live there this winter?

    it just cracks me up that we get so much snow in this town, because this is SoCal- I'm that person who moves to Southern California and goes, oh look, it's freezing today in the first week. My body is ready though, I was raised in the cold, I live in the cold, I have a stack of sweaters I haven't needed in years ready to make me look fabulous in the chill. I'm also totally convinced that boobs insulate your body better.

    I think it's kinda funny that almost the entire instructions are highlighted in red.

    Reminds me of the first time high school students get their own copy of a textbook and are asked to highlight important sections.
    They basically end up highlighting almost every word on every page.

    Thanks. I'll avoid them and see if there is anything else out there. Not much going on today. I missed half the week doing other things so it's make up day if possible.

    My driveway makes it impossible to get out of unless it's 100% clean of snow and ice. I'll wake up early to shovel that shit, idgaf, I love snow.
