We've received about 2' of snow here in the last 10 days, with 6'' coming over the weekend.
That means, for those of you out there who've neglected to do ANY shoveling/clearing, your sloth has finally caught up with you and now you can't get out of your driveway.
That's a YOU problem, not an US problem.
DO NOT CALL US TO TOW YOU OUT!
If YOU can't get OUT, what makes you think WE can get IN?! Especially if you consider these trucks are WIDER, TALLER and LONGER than the little mouse-holes you gnawed through the sides of that Fortress of Solitude-like ice wall that really is the end of your driveway, your very LONG driveway..... 300 YARDS OF UNCLEARED DRIVEWAY in one case.....
Oh, and did I mention, we DO NOT have 4x4 on these trucks? Except for one, which in bad weather is held in reserve anyway since you never know when the police are going to call you to winch out yet another moron in a Honda Civic who ignored the "NO WINTER MAINTENENCE" sign at 1000 block of Buck Valley Road, and are now stranded at about the 1100 block of said road?
Can't tell you how many calls we've had to turn down/cancel upon learning, either over the phone, or more likely, in PERSON when we get there, that the car was NOT reachable without a plowing first, and that's NOT a service we offer, call us back when we can get to you.
P.S. I don't care if you'll be late to work, you're making me late to help people who actually DID some work and shoveled themselves out before realizing they had a dead battery...
And one more thing, this is Central Pennsylvania, unless you just moved here, the fact that it will continue to snow until at least April Fools Day shouldn't be news to you. There's NO excuse for not doing SOMETHING when it at least got ankle-deep before Valentines Day.
