As a service to the community at large, I'm offering this diary forum to bitch about snow removal in Albany. Rational comments are not allowed here.

Remember, big brother is watching.

In an 45 min period I watched my street get plowed four times. I haven't been out to see if they came down any more times.

like boy scouts on crystal meth. Haven't seen the streets this clean since the tulip girls were out sweeping.

in my neighborhood. Oh, cleared some of it. The banks are eight feet into the road. And when they came through, they shot the crap from the road so far it's on everybody's front lawns, which I've never seen before in 15 years for one storm. Salt in grass, like what's the point?

Rookies today.

(They came through with the massive snow thrower thing that they usually aim for the strip between the road and the sidewalk....)

Had fun talking to my neighbors about Jerry's goons. I'm being more open about it. Every SINGLE person had an angry Jerry story, always about a huge lie he told. Going to go further out there with my story. It's getting a great reception. I know the APD/City wants to smear me (say she's nuts, so they don't do forensics after a gun shot). I'm finding everybody gets it, totally believes a Jerry is a bastard story.

And a year ago I liked the guy.

The city finally does at the very least a halfway decent job and...you complain.
They have rookies out perhaps because of the last attempt (so-called) made to take care of the snow and the bitching that went along with it (which was justifiable).

More people working (including rookies), more snow removed more efficiently. Its a simple formula really. Your complaint lays in the quality of the job?

Granted the job could always be better, especially considering we pay taxes and expect commensurable services, but come on already. Lets see the job done closer to right a few more times before we up the ante in our demands because all it does is shit on the DGS guys out there all night doing it. Even if your right and justified in your demands on the quality of the job (in this case not getting snow on your lawn), its not exactly the most prudent thing to bitch about...but I hear you.
Gradualism, gradualism, gradualism.
The efforts this time sound like a step in the right direction and if people bitch enough (justifiably when it comes to snow removal), the city will react, as they have done this time. Lets complain when its valid.

you'd know complaining about snow is not typical. I'm a diehard snowloving upstater.
This was just a bad job, getting the salt onto front lawns instead of keeping it in the street.
Ever been on the mountain roads in Vermont in the winter? Their integrity about the environment is for real. No salt.
We have every right to complain about poor jobs like this.

But I think that I saw a bunch of city workers pouring water in the crosswalks -- they hate people who walk you know.

And they blocked my driveway... wtf. Shouldn't the plow driver get out and clean up?
