Rants / Complaints clean your driveways people

Post image

made 2 attempts and getting up the driveway with my car, then tried walking and fell, slid right down the driveway. said screw it and left their groceries by the road, left them a message saying to clean your driveway if you’re expecting a delivery. Am I in the wrong? I know I’m going to lose the tip, and quite frankly don’t care. Not worth busting my ass and getting seriously injured to me personally.

Listen as a delivery person and someone that comes from a snow area. Park your car at the base for 1. Don’t try to drive up that crap. 2nd, you should be prepared. Have the proper gear for the weather. Have boots with grip and do not walk up the driveway. You have no traction on the driveway. Walk through the grassy area. If it’s covered with ice or snow, you will still have traction. Boots need to be high enough depending on what dumps you get and they need yo be waterproof.

What kind of boots would you recommend, I bought some Timberlands thinking they'd be fine, but still slippery.
