Winter?
Apparently, there are also benefits to working in shifts. When I was already working a couple of hours, snow started falling from the sky and the land was turned into a slippery white yard of death for automobiles. Around noon, no less than 350 kilometers of traffic jams had formed around Brussels, and accidents were reported everywhere. On site, everyone pretty much stayed inside which made it quite a relaxed shift for us.
One truck couldn't make it up a hill - even after two crews had been working pretty much non stop to get the roads free of snow - but after a second attempt from a longer distance he made it. That also was about the most interesting fact of the day for now.
The white carpet has now transformed into a slushy goo, nice!
