It's pretty pointless to sho9vel right now.

My biggest gripe has to do with businesses. They pay thousands of dollars to clear their 10 acre parking lots, then they don't bother to clear the little sidewalk that fronts their business. In fact, they often push the snow from the parking lot right onto the sidewalk, leaving pedestrians with no choice but to walk in the traffic.
Bring your shovel and start shoveling it in front of their door?
