You do realize some people might have no choice but to travel. People still have to get to work etc or they won't get paid. I know I'd love to work for a company that'd tell me not to come in in bad weather and still pay me but it's never going to happen. Have a think about that before you just blatantly accuse people of "ignoring" things.
Surely everyone has a choice? What about for their own personal safety (their personal responsibility)? If Friday is half as bad as predicted, would you venture out and hope for the best because you work for someone that is going to dock your pay if you don't come in?
I'm not going to say go and find a new job as I appreciate that isn't easy to do at the best of times, but I'd certainly be at least contemplating the idea of seeking a new job if the opportunity arises.
If you get stranded in a near hurricane for 3 hours, do you still get paid because at least you tried to get in? Does your boss mind you sleeping in the office/shop/warehouse if you got to work and can't get home?
Do you eventually get in to find out that, guess what, your boss decided to work from home?
Bad weather is NOT something people can or should ignore. Don't fight mother nature, or else be prepared for the consequences - bringing warm clothing, a bottle of water and some food, and being prepared to still not get to where you need to get to.
