Folks Who Have To Carry On Despite Ice And Snow

Mar 5, 2015 12:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

What’s that? Could it be? Why, yes, it looks like the sun is peeking out like an embarrassed late-arriving guest at a seated dinner. If only it had shown up earlier, it would have saved a lot of agitation, frustration and cancellations for schools and long-planned fundraisers.

Still, while organizations, like the Dallas Zoo and Dallas Arboretum, are closed today “for business as usual,” life goes on. Those staffs aren’t sitting around drinking hot cocoa and coasting around the Internet. Heck, no! Like so many others, their work requires them to be on the job regardless.

One group that especially needs appreciation is the area road crews that have been battling the ice that only melts during the day and freezes overnight. These people have a thankless job and been working around the clock in pretty miserable conditions.

Yeah, life is inconvenient with this March Mayhem, but there are those whose efforts continue regardless of the conditions. If you know one, thank them. If you don’t, perhaps it’s time to find one to thank.
