Who cares about you

If you live anywhere near the Northeast, if you've been paying any attention to any sort of news media, you know about the snow storm that went through. They started tossing around the word blizzard over the weekend. 

With predictions of more than a foot of snow in under 24 hours we Tartarus employees were eagerly anticipating at least one day off from work. Most businesses in our town decided no later than Monday morning that they would not open at all Tuesday or Wednesday. 

Imagine our shock then when we opened an email from the Hutt first thing Monday morning that read "FYI, I will not be making any decisions about being open or closed in the morning until tomorrow. If we decided to close, Shoes or I will call you first thing." Now, the Hutt posted about the storm on Facebook all weekend, completely freaked out about what was coming. Why, then, not make the call to close? Instead, we all had to wake up early and wait for a phone call.

The Hutt even went so far as to cancel all of it's appointments for Tuesday and Wednesday because "it won't be safe for people to come to Tartarus." So what is staff, then? Automatons? Soulless shades? 

The whole thing just leaves us scratching our heads.
