I'm a lil' scared!!
Hey yall... Of course we all get so used to having duds in this area that I didnt imagine this one would be bad. I ignored the news up until today thinking of course it would be a dud as well. I watched the weather channel today and I am petrified.
I have been off and on the phone with my boss all day. Top 3 things that are a priority for the newspaper during this storm--safety of their employees, getting the paper out, and payroll. We have people flying in from our corporate office in Virginia to help us. Biggest fear is that we arent going to have carriers out tomorrow and even that our roof will leak. We have a HUGE HUGE problem with our roof and it is directly over our million dollar press. It is close week for us and a pay week. I do payroll and so I have to get to work as early as possible. They had requested I be there by 4am because any later than that then we may not make it.
I think by 2am the wind gusts are going to be very strong and I would rather not be out at 2 either. I think I will pack up and go up there tonight around midnight and get everything done that I can. I am fearing we will have alot in our dept that will not be coming to work in the morning.
I hope that everyone is safe and all loved ones are as well.
Take care of yourselves... See you later.
