My sympathies to her. Short, round, overweight, out of shape. Having to scrape ice off the windshield. (thick or thin, it's a pain in the ass) But she's out there, doing what needs to be done, not bitching and whining.
I have this big room with 2 roll up doors on my house called a "garage". Turns out that if you get rid of all the useless crap in there you can park up to 3 cars in it and they don't get any ice on them at all.
I was renting an apartment in Nebraska and had a garage with it. I replaced the normal lightbulb with a 250 Watt heat lamp bulb shining on the dash from the ceiling. It was just enough to keep all the ice melted and the garage above freezing.
This doesn't work with ice, however if you're plagued by having to scrape frost off of your windshield before going to work in the AM, try parking your vehicle facing the wall or garage door (if you don't or can't use the garage) of your home.
The small amount of heat coming off the building prevents frost forming on the glass, unless it's REALLY cold.
Typical drama queen
ReplyDeleteIce sucks...
ReplyDeleteCorrect, clueless, they have no f'ing idea. Ice storm coating everywhere 1/4 inch thick. Boss says no work no pay. I empathize with her greatly.
DeleteOut of her natural habitat. An illegal alien from El Salvador Abbott shipped up to Chicago.
ReplyDeleteReminds me of the scene in Fargo

DeleteThe strongest quips are forged from irony.
DeleteHer protrusion prevents her from reaching the center! And I ain’t tawkin teets
ReplyDeleteGuess letting the defroster run for a few minutes then doing that never dawned on her.
ReplyDeleteMore fun to have her pour hot water on it to melt the ice quickly. The hotter, the better!
DeleteEasier, amIrite?
*snerk*
That's why I tied a tarp over my windshield. Then I got really smart and moved South!
ReplyDeletePussy.
ReplyDeleteThe only ice I like is in my Bourbon...

To think, The NY Post thought that was newsworthy. They are, I think, getting as bad as Fox News.

You can spend 15 minutes chipping ice like an idiot, or start the car, run the defrost, and have a cup of coffee for ten.
ReplyDeleteThe ice slides off in sheets.
