Don’t feel pressured to risk your life to show up for work on Monday if the roads are dangerous. Especially for the executive leaders who have done everything possible to disrespect you, exploit you, marginalize you, undermine you and boast publicly about their plans to eliminate you.
I have driven in ice and snow on very treacherous roads in previous years because I felt responsibility to show up for the team. I took pride in giving my best to a manager who (I think tried) to have my back. Unfortunately, my previous.manager couldn’t even have his own back.
We should have never felt the need to drive to work in dangerous weather, but definitely don’t do it for these self-serving clowns. If they haven’t made arrangements for you to WFH, then it’s on them. (We are back to 5 days in the office and they have taken away our WFH technology.) If you don’t feel comfortable admitting you aren’t willing to drive on ice, then say you are sick with the stomach virus that is going around.
Take care of yourself and your families, because our senior executives are all patting themselves on the back for achieving new levels of ruthlessness. Let’s see what these over-educated under-skilled frat boys can do without you.
