That winter storm that's looming on the horizon for tomorrow into Tuesday looks absolutely vicious. Possible 7 inch snow and 1/2 inch ice. So...

Since I've never had this problem, how exactly would I call into work should I feel it's too much to risk my precious car?

Responses:

call a co-worker and ask for a ride -- nm - peglegpete Jan 8, 10:15 3
- That doesn't quite solve the I have to deliver pizzas part. I think the others below are right; if it happens, we're likely closed. -- nm - Qale Jan 8, 10:18 2
  - And all those people who are trapped at home will be outraged that they can't have a pizza delivered :) -- nm - MojaveMeg Jan 8, 10:21 1
    - So true. Especially those already outraged that we have a set delivery area they happen to live outside of. -- nm - Qale Jan 8, 10:24
Or ask to use the manager's car for delivery - amoxy Jan 8, 10:03 4
- Amusingly, his car has been broken since just before New Years and he's been getting a ride to work. I work at Ye Old Comedy of Errors Pizzaria. -- nm - Qale Jan 8, 10:06 3
  - Sounds like the Pizza Shop will be shut down that day -- nm - amoxy Jan 8, 10:08
  - i did'nt know that - Danedukenuuk Jan 8, 10:07 1
    - Franchises!!! -- nm - Qale Jan 8, 10:12

- Yeah that sounds about right. You know, my boss has to travel a good distance himself... so he may be kinda stuck too. Truck delivery is Monday - Qale Jan 8, 10:05 2
  - what kind of car do you have? -- nm - loosilu Jan 8, 10:08 1
    - A 2005 Ford Fuckas ZX3. I lurve my car. It's getting kind of oldish though nearing 160k miles. I may buy my mom's 2000 same brand that has half that. - Qale Jan 8, 10:12
public transport. or simply call in and do home office -- nm - marcel Jan 8, 09:27 3
- None of those would be an option. There is no public transport here and I can't deliver pizzas from home. Hee! I know other places are like whatevs - Qale Jan 8, 09:46 2
  - if the cooks can't get in to make the pizzas, there's nothing to deliver. -- nm - loosilu Jan 8, 10:09 1
    - True. We actually run the place during the day with only 3 people nowadays. - Qale Jan 8, 10:19
