I’ve never had a job that’s had a snow day or reschedule for weather. I would have to leave 2 hours early for my 50 mile commute if it was bad in the old days. Now I walk the 2 miles and more than once the snow plow driver has picked me up. He is my co-worker though.
But our policy is to never close otherwise they would have to pay emergency personnel overtime pay. However, they will close the library and parks and rec stuff and those employees must use vacation time or not get paid. I prefer my option of being able to come in.
I don’t think schools should close unless it was an unusual situation. But I don’t think students should be penalized if they can’t make it in. (I’m also not a fan of teachers who use attendance for grading purposes. )
