Working away from home

I am not at home right now. I'm in another town where several of us from McDonald's are staying in a motel. We worked earlier today at a new store that's been put in a Walmart in this town, and because we had to be back here early in the morning, our supervisor made room reservations for 10 of us.

See, it's snowing and the predicted snowfall could be up to 10 inches. The good thing now is that it's still 36 degrees outside, which means part of it will melt off the roads even as it falls. However, if the temperature goes down to freezing, well, of course the roads will freeze over and become dangerous to drive on.

We are only about 5 miles from the store where we'll be working, but even that short distance could be dicey if the roads freeze over.
