“For the life of me I still can't understand how living in New England regardless of income level how people especially older/ elderly can still not either have a snowblower or a plow guy set up and then bitch about shoveling”
I’m in a unique situation. I live on a small cow path street in Quincy. The houses are literally jammed against each other. Too narrow for a truck and plow to maneuver a driveway. If you use a snowblower you’d just be throwing it either in the street or your neighbors tiny piece of property. Pissing off the other guy.
I don’t mind hand shoveling my property. I’ve been lifting weights for 50 years, to me it’s a workout. I feel bad for my elderly neighbors, most are now alone in their 80’s. Their useless fat kids seldom check on them. My gripe tells my age I guess. There used to be armies of kids shoveling out the old people around here for a few bucks. The old folk tell me no one will do it now. ( Probably because eventually I do it for free )
Kids are wired different today, if it can’t be done with a phone it’s impossible.
