When plow operators get home, do they curse the other plow operators who have plowed them in?

Way up on lofty Fairmount Hill in Hyde Park, Mike Ball shakes an angry fist at the plow guy who kept pushing snow onto his hard-won shoveled-out driveway.

The evil plowman returned three times after his initial run, each time undoing considerable of my work, replacing open spaces at two points on our 50 feet of sidewalk as well as the wide driveway. I even waved him off twice, to no response. I have no doubt he was hanging around the neighborhood and reworking dry streets just to keep his hourly rate in play. He is an imp of no breeding and low morality.

Pro tip: If you're not going anywhere for the day, don't shovel all the way out to the street. The wall you leave behind will act like a dam and keep some of the plowman's handiwork out.

Yeah- we live in a vacuum- every man an island- how dare plow men plow the streets!

What is wrong with people?

The Salvo Satan did me in too. I live on Milton Avenue and think he was scoping out my situation, waiting for the right time to strike.

Once, I went inside after 2 hours of shoveling.. VRRRROOMMM.

Damn him!!!

The plow drivers who come home with the plows they use for the city every 2-3 hours or so and plow out their driveway openings, their sidewalks and those belonging to their friends... putting that snow... you guessed it... in the street, driveway openings and onto the sidewalks (if reachable) of the people they are not friends with.

Ridiculous.

My sidewalk got snow plowed onto it during the first storm. But after that, the pile along the edge of the sidewalk kept it from happening again.
