Is the same guy posting over and over and over and over? How many of the same letter can be submitted? We get it. Transplants suck. You hate them and want them to stop talking about the snow. It was posted below. And again before that. And again in another letter before that. And countless times prior to that, too. We fully get how you feel about the situation. We have heard it so many times now it can't be possible that you believe you are not being heard. We hear you! We get it! Transplants suck and you want them to stop talking about the snow. Sadly, the responses will all be the same as they were the last x amount of times this letter was posted and transplants will still suck and they will still talk about the snow.

Well, transplants still suck and your absolute refusal to adapt and just take a day off when it's handed to you is baffling.

@2 who are you talking to? Every day is a day off for me! I don't work and I don't in live in Portland and if did, I'd be staying home, taking my unexpected vacation and enjoying it!

As an aside, Transplants Suck! is a great name for a Portland band. I'd totally go see them play at the Doug Fir, if you know, it wasn't 100% handicapped inaccessible.

Yeah, remember when Portland just stopped existing because no East Coast climbers would go into work on snow days? Thank heavens for the try hards, who trudge into their sparsely populated offices to do work that just as easily could've been completed at home. Sure makes all of this city's bar staff, transit workers, medical workers and airport employees look like bums, doesn't it?

Oregon trail ancestors are spinning in their graves over city shutting down because of 1 in. snow. You got soft.

FYI - the local economy loses millions because of snow days.... keep it weird Portland

And heaven forfend businesses can't wring every dollar of economic impact out of every day on the calendar. Gee, maybe we should be like Jersey and have all the kids out of school, half the trains working, and traffic backed up for five hours just so people can get in 5.5 hours of "productivity."

P.S. No. 7, they'd have to roll over in their actual graves. Roughly one out of every 10 people who traveled along the Oregon trail died as a result. If you're cool with 10% of commuters dying... https://www.nps.gov/scbl/planyourvisit/upload/death-and-danger-along-the-trails.pdf
