Reply to comment by Astroisbestbio in Desperate for plowing by Jazzhandsfolkfeet

People move here complaining about having to shovel snow is a special kind of idiocy to me. My reaction will never change to hearing people complain about things that a region is known for. It’s like moving to Seattle and complaining about your stuff getting wet because of the rain. Just stop it.

If you have a contract with a plow company, it is not unreasonable to be upset that they go away on vacation right before a major storm, without warning and without setting up alternates. Same goes for any other contract you would have.

And again, you can have medical issues, problems with health as a senior, things happen. Should I let my 90 year old neighbor suffer and possibly die just because they knew what living here would entail? They are natives. Lived here 3 generations. Or is that not enough for you?

Again, even natives can get sick or injured, and they get old. I'm glad your 75 year old neighbor is lucky enough to be healthy enough to do it, but not everyone ages as well. Bitch about leaf peepers driving like shit, bitch about tourists peeing in electrical closets because they don't like that there's no bathroom but an outhouse, but don't complain when someone is upset because their plow guy ditched them right before a major once in a few decades storm when they have an infant.

Every march we get a huge snowstorm. It’s a thing in Vermont. Also a thing in Vermont? Not putting all your eggs in one basket. Be prepared or be prepared to suffer
