Only main roads have been cleared of snow here but some of those roads are still a bit dodgy. MC didn't drop any of our mail off so we sent two vans to get the SDs and the mech trays. Prepped that mail and collectively delivered the only town walk we have then went home. I'm not sure if we will be delivering mail tomorrow given the weather forecast that the snow will turn to ice. Still snowing a bit here now.

No deliveries at my place today, got sent home. I like how our DOM tried to say because we are off today early then they expect us to go over when the time comes. Ha yeah right.

We were told the same thing. Alternative was to go and help deliver at another nearby office that was working.

How many days worth will you have to deliver once it's deemed safe enough?
