      It's an option to stay home for those with non essential jobs. It's an option for those who dont live paycheck to paycheck. staying home is not an option for many others.. are you saying police and emts should just stay home when the weather is bad? Are you suggesting that when theres snow on the road, all grocery stores and gas stations should be closed so the employees can just stay home. Real question is what's wrong with your thinking...?

      You don't know anyone in those professions. Otherwise, you'd know that they prepare in advance. Staff will sleep at the facility or stay at hotels within walking distance. Some will stay with friends or family nearby. Fact remains: being an essential worker doesn't give you or your car the ability to fly above snow or melt it with a laser. This video is funny b/c dumb people thought they could push tons of snow with their cars.

      I'm best friends with a paramedic. My ex is a cop and a medic. I used to manage a grocery store. I work with truck drivers every single day. I know many people in the trade industry since I am a technician myself. You dont know me but you're telling me who I know and don't know? What I am simply saying is that lots of people cant just stay home. There are jobs to do and many of us figure it out. It's not an option for some people and if it is, that's a huge luxury and many of those people with that luxury dont appreciate the work of others and insult them by saying, "shoulda stayed home" "just stay home" "is it worth your life" or calling people dumb or crazy for trying to do their jobs. Without those people brave/prepared enough to be outside of the comfort of their homes during bad conditions, the people inside their homes would be screwed.

    I was in one of those snow storm but all of us in the residential area had to leave the cars on the road (no way we could go up the hill) and walked home.. When it stopped snowing, two of the neighbors, one a Ski instructor equipped with a van and towing chains, and another that owned a towing truck, volunteer to go and tow the cars back to their owner's house. They would pick up one neighbor each to guide them to their car and soon enough they were back with the car, pick up another neighbor and do the same.. We were snow bound for 7 days so, all the ladies of the house start cooking and we would get together in different homes in the evening for good food, drinks and an unforgettable friendship.. Those were the good old days and the best winter I ever had...
