Got to 1st job of the day... Waited, called, waited. Left and moved my 2nd job into position one. Turned out 1st one was coming from an area getting hammered with snow.
So i get set up on 1st ( 2nd ) job. clean 32 office chairs, and 9 cubical office walls.
Job 3 canceled because she was in no way going to get home in time to meet me because of heavy snow and ice.
So I head back to job one.
Steep driveway, but just wet.
I park and clean for 2.5 hrs as it starts to snow. When I got there air temp was 32, when I wanted to leave air temp was 22..
I go to leave, not gunna make it out of the drive. So I chain up thinking that will help. Problem I was not able to get a run at it, and chains ( cable ) were just spinning.
So I hook up tm.. and soak the driveway in hot water melting all the snow and ice so I could pull out.
Get out of the neighborhood and start up a hill as a car loses traction.
You could have ice skated on this road. So out putting chains back on.
Last job of day called asked if I was on my way. I said yes, he offered to post pone as it took him 2 hours to go 7 miles. I guess his neighborhood got dumped on and the local highways near him were grid locked.
Day started out with 4 jobs, but was only able to clean 2. Still I nice $$ day. But what a pain in the ass..
Saw lots of cars parked in ditches, some upside down.. Hmmmm.
One job for tomorrow already postponed because his kids will be home as schools are closed.
Moved job 4 to position 1.. She asked.. Are ya sure you will be able to get out in AM.. Well van is already chained up. So I hope so. Luckily she is close.
2 other jobs are confirmed and excited I'm planning on coming.
In all the years I lived in Spokane I never ever chained up my van.
Sucks to live and work in an area where the county has almost no snow removal equipment.
