Receive text from work: We will be opening at noon due to inclement weather.

Reverse process to go back home. Got here 15 minutes ago, have to leave soon if I want to get to work ontime.

I think I will call out because of their bullshit.

Thoughts?

Edit: I decided to go back into work, got on the train, and immediately recieved the text that WORK HAS BEEN CANCELED.

BUT IVE WASTED 4 HOURS OF MY LIFE GETTING THERE

I know that bosses have a rough time calling an end/cancel work. You are depriving people of livelihood because, they don't work for free, and they need their income. "Work will be their for them tomorrow." Yes, and needing to catchup is bad for your clients too. So they weigh the decision and at the very last moment make the call.

No. They are not considering that people also have to make time to travel to work.

If work gets called I still get paid, so I can't complain about that. I just didn't want so much time to be wasted
