Treatment of Snow Days from your employer
I have 2 choices. Drive to work in my Land Cruiser, or work from home. There are some jobs that can't work remotely (i.e. maintenance), but the vast majority are able to work remotely for a couple of days pretty seamlessly.

They are also considered less effective so at best they only get a 1% annual raise for this year.

I'm salary so it doesn't bother me. But the guys that are out on the street everyday that get paid hourly plus commission are pissed off. They're telling them that they have to use their personal days in order to get paid for the two days they missed. We used to have disaster recovery days where everyone would get paid regardless. But they say that winter storms don't qualify.

WFH... no difference than any other day. If I would have lost power, would be treated as admin time.

We work in the emergency room. Glad everyone doesn’t think like you because the public won’t have any healthcare options during crisis like snow storms, hurricanes and so on. Not living to work. We provide very critical services
to the public. Do you think people don’t get hurt or sick during those times? So it’s very important for us to show up.

I was a police officer. People work when they can. I know you are old. You don’t think you are. But you are

As a police officer, I still think you are dumb and this is dumb. If you can go to work, go to work. If you cant, IE 2016 flood where I couldnt, then you shouldnt get black balled. I didn't but alot of our employees got black balled who didnt make it in to work from Livingston Parish.
Live to work as I said.

We're all professional adults, so come if you can. Nobody takes advantage so no need for a one size fits all policy.

I'm paid per client, so no actual "PTO" aside from a couple major holidays. That said, my boss encouraged folks to move to telehealth and closed the physical office to help keep folks off the road when we got a foot of snow. And helped out with reschedules.

For me it was use PTO or unpaid. Sucks.
