Dropping Your Blade

The first big snow fall finally comes through and the plowing done on our side roads is absolutely terrible. They where bad on the day it snowed but I figured they where just getting the heavy stuff well the rest of the snow fell and they would go back to clean up it when it stopped. But they didn’t the city is paying these private guys to plow the back roads because there is not enough city trucks and man power to do it all and it looks like they did it with a shovel. It’s called dropping your blade, from the looks of the job it seemed like they kept the blade an inch or two off the ground. Some of them are so bad you can’t even see the cement on any points of them. On the corner of the roads instead of turning the blade in then lifting it up to come from a different angle to push it fully in the pile they just leave it which makes it now so its blocking another one of the roads. The only excuse for a job this bad is being lazy these guys are getting paid with tax payers money to plow these streets and they cut every corner they can to get the job done quickly. I guess they are good enough to drive on without getting stuck but stopping and making turns is just as hard as if they left it the way it was. The city needs to do something about this problem sooner then later because it’s going to cause accidents and put pedestrians and drivers in danger every time they get on the road.
