I wasn’t going to respond anymore but one repeated point being made is ignorant as shit. 3ft of snow, 200ft driveway, 12ft wide path is 7,200 cubic feet of snow.
A snow shovel holds approximately 1.5 cubic feet of snow. If it takes an average of 4 seconds to complete a single shovel, then it would take me over 5.3 hours of non-stop shoveling without a break to create a path just wide enough for a car (never mind the rest of my driveway). That’s also over 100,000 lbs of snow.
Anyone with the word shovel in their post, post a picture of how much snow you shoveled today.

We are all set. A friend of a friend of a friend pulled through and we were able to give him quite a bit of business for his unrelated day job.
For all of you that legitimately tried to help, thank you. To everyone else, I hope that the next time you are in a difficult position that you are able to receive help or at least empathy.

Also, it took 2 hours this morning to shovel our deck, front walkway, and path to the propane tank. The driveway would take at least 4x that.

I did. A family member has a personal plow truck but they are in FL at the moment and they live 1 hour away so I can’t walk or find a ride. Now I’m on Plan C, which involves calling as many people as possible and posting for leads.

Thank you. If only I could afford an ATV with a snow plow attachment and a snow blower or have a career that allows me the time off to spend hours shoveling 3 ft of snow off a 200 foot driveway. The lack of compassion here is stunning. God forbid that someone’s Plan A and Plan B falls through and they try to use a community to come up with a viable Plan C.

Reply to comment by Average-RedditUser1 in Did you know, Burlington had the highest number of homicides in decades, after defunding the police? No surprise there at all. Thank god it was reversed. So question, do you believe it was actually a good idea to defund the police? If so why? Pros and Cons. by [deleted]
