7 Reasons To Be a Snow Plow Driver in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine
Snow days and big storms mean, for most of us, we hit the market for comfort food and excitedly plan our television binge day when we know snow is on the horizon.
Then we'll venture out from our self-imposed slumber and go sledding, build a snowman, or yes, even deal with the dreaded shoveling and snow-blowing or head out to work if the roads area doable.
You know who doesn't get to comfortably veg out cuddled up in blankets with junk food and '80s movies?
Cheers to our snow plow drivers, and the more I think about it, who wouldn't want to try this at least once?
1) Driving One of Those Big Boys
I think that first jolt when hitting the gas would make me giggle with excitement. I mean yes, even us women have wondered what it would be like to sit that high up and drive something that powerful that shoves loads of snow out of the way.
2) King of the Road
Snow plow drivers literally rule the road during storms. That power has to feel kind of cool. I mean, you get to literally control traffic sometimes.
3) The Baby Plows Are Super Cute
How much fun would it be to zoom around in those little ones around parking lots or side roads? It's like a Tonka toy compared to the big boys.
4) Make New Friends
I wonder if those guys in the photo above are making plans to watch the big game now? The next thing you know, their wives are besties, and you're renting a lake cabin together in the summer.
5) Entrepreneurship
If you have a pick-up, just slap on one of those plow thingies to your truck and voila, extra bucks for that anniversary trip that needs to happen, or that 120-inch television on your bucket list.
6) The Art of It All
I feel like there's something to the snow placement and beauty of it all, at least in the beginning.
7) You're Like Rudolph
Leading everyone safely in the storm.
I was going to add that blocking in cars with piles of snow feels mischievously fun, but then I realized that's just my hunger talking. What reasons would you add to this list?
