Well, I do accounting for Gallahue Mental Health Services, a part of Community Hospitals Indianapolis, and I do most of the work out of my house. I only report to the office once or twice a week. So, no snow pay for me unfortunately! But I have NEVER worked for a company that gave snow pay. If they closed down the business for the day due to the weather, everyone went unpaid, unless they had some personal days saved up. Many people are on salary (I am) so it really wouldn't make any difference. We get paid the same no matter how many hours a week we work (believe me, it's not as good as it sounds! They work my ass off sometimes).

I suppose some companies give snow pay, but I have never worked for one.

Compared ta texas - sure - but I come from north a here - Timmins when the weather's close ta -40 (celcius & ferhenheit are the same at that point) sometimes. Most Christmases lately have hovered around the -30 to -35 range. So I'm not complainin about the weathere here. Been minus 20 (near 0*F) taday - and colder with the strong winds, but it ain't the norm - been a warm winter so far.
