I know the people they hire at my apartment complex suck. It is like a horse show. They just are inexperienced and do not know what they are doing. The guy has a plow truck nothing heavy duty and two young guys shoveling. Not even a snow blower. I cleared my car so if they **** it up . They will be buying me new car. Almost out of beer. That is a emergencey lol.

You guys really got nailed with a lot of snow, but luckily it was friday night so they should have the roads cleared by monday. We got almost a foot from the same storm thursday during the day, so coming home from work was difficult.

They had plowed our street once but there was about 6 inches on it when I arrived home, and I got stuck turning into my driveway which my wife and son cleared off. Hopefully they can get the power restored quickly for you guys since it's mighty cold outside.

I'm not suprised the TA is buried. The hood of the Forester was about the level of the snow in our yard. They guy plowing our driveway busted his plow just as he was finishing!! Nothing like finishing his work for 1.5 hours. All the snow that's piled up is taller than our Acadia!!!!!

Yeah this was a rough storm on the back. I only shoveled two decks, two pathways and shoveled out a few cars and it took me 5 hours.

Crazy...and yes some people have no business plowing!

I remember couple years back they had to call in bulldozers and back hoes. We had to use the bobcat for a lot of parking lots as well.

Yep steve. This guy leaves 2 inches when there is a 4 inch storm. They should of started in middle and pushed 1 side out at a time. They dont even have a snowblower. I know this storm is hard to plow but like you said steve not everyone should be plowing. I called landlord and he said he was calling. No **** lol

3 1/2 hours latter my neighbor and I did most of it. A little blood sweat and a few beers. If you want to get something done you have to do it yourself. Unreal . Thats me with the shovel just got done 5 minutes ago. That is enough for 3 cars to get out including my car. the rest of my neighbors stayed inside. I dont blame them but I dont like knowing I cant go nowwhere. Who knows if it will turn to ice and then im really screwed. The camaro is nice and safe.

i laugh at all the ppl complaining, it was a BLIZZARD!!!! There is no place to put the snow, and it came so fast that plow trucks cant keep up, I had to show my landlord how to plow this kind of deep snow, after helping dig him out his truck when he got stuck...i took his truck and plowed out my car and neighbors cars, the land lord went in and drank coffee...lol
