Sometimes the walk from the parking lot can be kind of slippery.*
But everyone is in their snow boots so it’s really not a problem.
Some walk around the office in their ski boots, especially on powder days. Like today.*
The only complaint about snow is that there isn’t enough of it, and when is more coming?
In fact, no one really complains much. No one hates their job, they’re all excited to be here. Warm friendly people who wouldn’t rather be anywhere else, and are genuinely pleased to meet you.
Some are forced to ski first thing in the morning, before the crowds, to get good pictures for the web (go Andrew!)**
You get to see kids just be kids every day.
Sometimes you bump into Olympians.
When you need a break, the lift is only a few hundred feet away, and the line is always short on weekdays.
The view from the top of the mountain can cure any mid-day slump… which is rare to begin with.
Hot chocolate, hot toddies, hot lattes, hot croisssants, hot soup, hot fireplaces… need I go on?
