I love snow plows

So my friendly township snow plow driver decided to play mail box baseball and take out my farm house style mailbox as well as several others down the road FFS. I had to dig it out of 6' of snow down the road. My tax dollars at work!!! Well I'm pretty sure my property tax bill was in there.... Yup certain of it in fact Ha Ha. I guess they will just have to wait until June till all the snow melts to get missed payments. I'm certainly not going to dig a hole and put in a new post till then.
Saving money till June Put-r-ther !!!

I don't like em lol. I live on a state route and my driveway entrance gets burried . I snow blow it back into the street. But of course some jag bag always plows into the snow and blows it back in. Usually some idiot in a 4x4 . Well I got creative in the fall since we have curbside leaf pick up all we have to do is rake the leaves to the street and the city comes and sucks em up. Well surprise surprise some idiot always plows into them blowing the leaves everywhere. So I stuck some bricks under the leafs and just went in the house and watched lol. Well I decided I was going to do the same for the snow. I filled some bottles with water and threw em under the snow I blew into the street and watched cars nail em and swerve all over the place lol. The joys of living on a busy street.

I plow snow for a living. It's a tough job plowing some times for 16 hour shifts & trying to do a perfect job ALL THE TIME. It's a thankless job can't make anybody happy.

I did plowing for a few winters. My old body shop teacher had some accounts and I had a truck one of his spare plows would work on so I fit the bill lol. Made good money and slept through class lol when I showed up. They do a great job on our street but I hate the fact motorist nail the snow on purpose to push it back into my driveway.

The mail carrier took out my mailbox. He got his little mail wagon stuck in the snow and in getting loose, he ran into the mailbox and knocked it right off the post.
