Today, a snow storm rolled into my small town, leaving my car stuck under 3 feet of snow. I called my boss to tell her I couldn't drive to work. Her reply? "Walk." FML

Today, is the blizzard. I have to go into work, my boss threatened to fire me if I didn't show up. I sent him a picture of the snow completely covering my car. He said I moved the snow there and could move it back. FML

Stuck

Today, it was snowing really badly, so my boss said that everyone who drove to work could leave. But because I got the bus in, she said that I should stay and do a full day. By the time she eventually decided it was bad enough for me to leave, the buses were cancelled. FML

Today, I got stuck in the snow in the middle of street. As I was just beginning to get myself unstuck, the snow plow came by and buried the front end of my car. FML

Today, my car got stuck in a foot of snow. I tried desperately digging around my wheels to see if it would help. I was finally able to get out 10 minutes later only to realize that I had dropped my phone in the snow while I was digging and had run over it. FML

Today, walking to work in a snowstorm since I don't own a car, a man rolled down his window and screamed, "what are you doing you f***ing freak? you stupid b**ch!", while I waited for a green light to cross. FML

Today, I spent an hour in a snowstorm waiting for my bus to show up. After I got fed up, I decided to just clean off my car and drive to work. After I was halfway finished swiping off the snow and ice stuck to my car, the bus drove right past me. FML

Today, my boss texted me to say the office was closed because of the snow. I begged him to let me go in anyway because I had nothing to do all day. I have no life, friends or hobbies. FML

Today, it's -20°C outside. Half way through my thirty minutes walk to work, my boss pulled up beside me in her car, said "You look cold. I'll see you at work." And then drove away. FML

Today, my car died after I got off work at 1am. All of my coworkers had already left and nobody could come out to jump my car. I had to walk the 3 miles home in a torrential downpour. FML

A whole 3 feet of snow? Well you obviously can't brush or shovel that off your car in 10 minutes, so you should miss a whole day at work because of this terrible event.

Of course you should walk. You twat. It's your job to be there. It's none of your boss' concern how you get there.

That literally happened to me, I was sixteen and we had one if the worst snowstorms in twenty years, the roads were closed, no buses running and I lived a good ten miles from work. My boss said "well just figure out a way to get there". Meanwhile he was only a mile away but chose to stay in his large house with a fireplace. Needless to say I quit and found a better job. Sorry your boss was just as awful.

Only three feet? If you're in a town that typically receives this much snow normally, then the main streets should be well clear even by 8 AM. After that, most neighborhoods have at least one person with a pick up and snow plow attachment for side streets. I'm assuming you must live in town if your boss suggested walking so it should be no problem to dig out and drive to work. And if for some reason you live on the east or west coast (and we all know they can't handle winter like midwesterners ;D) then your town would simply shut down. Sounds like OP is being a bit lazy...
