Does that mean you're getting paid to do nothing?

Our office closed, but we were in the middle of a three day conference, so we're going to continue on a conference call. I've got an 8 hour call coming up in 20 minutes, then I get to snowblow my driveway :(

My office always gets a lot more done when the computers are down since people don't have a built in distraction at their finger tips.

The Big 3 are hiring what seems like every engineer in the Midwest, if you're serious.

The only problem is all of our stuff is built into our computers so we are just sitting here twiddling our thumbs.

Time to clean up your space/cube/kitchens/conference rooms. Organize the supplies room. Get rid of all the broken chairs. Go throw out all the 2013 calendars. Etc etc. There's always stuff that doesn't get done when everyone is working.

Apply to new jobs, write a few more articles without anyone seeing, yeah I think I can get some stuff done.

Nearly got stuck there last night. Initial flight out of MDW got canceled while my colleague and I were up in Schaumburg. We called our company travel agent to switch us, put us on a plane to Atlanta then Manchester out of MDW. Enroute to MDW, that flight got canceled. Third time was the charm, though... we ended up on a ORD-BOS flight then rented a car in Boston to take us back to Manchester.

How much snow do you have out there in Chitown?

About 5 in on the ground with more falling, My family and I got stuck in Dulles coming back from Europe a few weeks ago, they said the next flight wouldn't be until tuesday, it was saturday, so we rented a car, I drove for 9 and half hours straight after being up for around 34hrs. It took us about 12hrs total which isn't bad.
