Never experienced worse road and plowing conditions.
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 (aside from extenuating circumstances as machine won't start or blew up in middle of cleanup ( been there). Brought a lot into perspective to the non stop wave downs I had today doing my 12 driveway route that I suffered thru in my truck since 7am yesterday to keep up with when they ask how much to plow the 2+ feet in their driveway in one shot not knowing where anything is and i tell them how much and they are i not price gouging or anything but my truck is a 20 yr old Chevy 2500 and I don't beat on it that's why I am anal about paying attention to snow conditions. And I say yeah it may only take me a few minutes but which is more importantly to you. Hours of torture that may lead to a heart attack or some of their money versus for me to replace truck/ plow/ snow blower thousands of dollars when I hit something buried like a kids toy How much money is your time worth. And I have dedicated customers that rely on me to be reliable and they are counting on me. Which is easier to drive regarding time in relation to money? Your check book and a pen or a shovel and waist deep snow?
Be prepared.
I picked up 6 new permanent customers today. Sucks. It just another aggravation to deal with. Some call snow white gold. More like blood money.
