It's the plural part of your gripe I'm having difficulty understanding.
Do you get paid for this? If so, quit complaining.
If not, WTF are you doing it for? :canflag4:

You DO know it will turn to rain and be gone by tomorrow... right? ;)

Now I'm going for a massage. Thanks Rogers!

Steve.....we could use you over here in Maple Fridge. I just went for a walk around the neighbourhood and observed that virtually no one (residential or business) has bothered to shovel their walkways yet. We're talking some pretty big names here too like KFC & White Spot. I thought there were bylaws in place requiring sidewalks to be shovelled?

The bylaws I've seen are the same for businesses and homeowners and allow a pretty long lead time from end of snowfall until you have to have it cleared. Numbered in days.

On the other hand, businesses that don't shovel their sidewalks immediately are idiots, because anyone who gets hurt can sue them. Even though it is technically not their property.

Dan, as a building manager I found locally that we had 24 hours after a snowfall to do the nasty job of removing snow. At least in Surrey and New Westminster.
:(

But Jon is right, one could get sued, even though it is technically not their property. :?

Look at the bright side tho Steve .. the neighbours will all love ya. Bosa Brothers will likely give you a plaque for
being good neighbour of the year.

I've just done my sidewalk for the fourth time today . .and now the snow has stopped, so hopefully the rain will
come and wash what's left away. Enough exercise for one day. 8-)
