Flood 2013: Going To Work Thread

[East Coast Flame]

Everyone's back at Husky today. Thankfully I walk in, so no traffic issues for me!

[ah123]

Have been working from home all week so far and it is driving me nuts. Not sure if our building will be open tomorrow

[Senator Clay Davis]

Traffic will likely continue to be a disaster until the CTrains are back running normally. MacLeod south around Chinook has been just ridiculous the past few days.

Just got an email from my company. Electricity at Livingston is on and the building will be open tomorrow.

No idea how I am going to get home. Not really looking forward to that drive.

The 4th Ave flyover is still closed? We're all supposed to return to work tomorrow, but now I have to figure out another way in. What about driving through Inglewood on 9th, does anyone know if that's viable?

I thought I heard that the flyover is open now. Anyone confirm?

I heard on the radio this morning it was open but when I drove past at 6:20AM it was still blocked off and there was a cruiser sitting in the way. Same with Edmonton Trail southbound.

Centennial Place is open tomorrow too, parkade is closed.

Back at work today. Some people were back in yesterday but we're running a skeleton staff so we can help the company stay afloat. Power is still off to our building but we have generators running on the roof. Air quality is low and it is hot in here with no HVAC.

Parkade open for monthly parkers only. I got that info from the Livingston place website.

The flyover is open as well as Langevin bridge. I drove past both, and while on the radio they were saying it is still closed, there was no more police cruiser on that bridge anymore.

Are you in the East tower? I'm in the west tower and was advised that it will still be closed Thursday.

[Rapidfire999]

Is the suncor building open Thursday?

One of the companies in Livingstone... working remotely should be fine & if possible to do essential things would be expected

CALGARY OFFICE:
Livingston Place will be open for business on Thursday. However, the city is still requesting employees not return to the core until after the long weekend.

Basically this company is trying to follow city requests to not have people in the core while repairs are still occurring.

I find it crazy if any companies in the core have their staff (other than essential to get something running before next Tuesday).

Just found out that we won't be going back until Tuesday (office in the Beltline). Makes sense, but I am bummed out by the news.

[Freeway]

Anybody know if I can take 12th Ave across town to Stampede Park or if there's still closures?

Looking more and more like we're in the same boat for our belt line office. Latest twitter buzz is that Enmax has cancelled the midnight re-powering they had planned tonight.

I am getting a little stir crazy at home, word is we're volunteering for cleanup tomorrow I mission, I'm thrilled to be getting out of the house.

[Mr.Coffee]

we've been at work for 2 days now... from what I can tell productivity was horrifically low and everyone resented the decision almost to a man, including some management.

To be fair, they did say if you were affected to take care of your own issues, and they did say if you want to volunteer go nuts. They actually haven't been that bad at all, leniant on leaving early, etc., but everyone still seems to bitch and moan.

[Rapidfire999]

Does anyone take the 301/62/64 at all? How are those bus routes?

Edit: nm they are normal

[Burninator]

Took the train from the south this morning. Pretty terrible. Took almost two hours to get downtown.
