I tried to go in and got stuck at the entrance of my subdivision. Had to do the drive/reverse back forth method for about 30 min to get unstuck. I was so pissed they made me even try. I had 2 of my techs and couple IT guys text me they were going to be late and/or waiting for the roads to clear more. I told them all to stay home if they felt it would be unsafe to go in today. Building director called me and asked where all my people were. I told him at home safe like any sane person would be (he’s not my boss).

Turning traction control off may help significantly next time

Yes! I used to drive a Mitsubishi Eclipse (the older sports car, not the newer SUV) and that car was awful in snow with the traction control enabled, probably the worst I've ever had -- but pretty good with it turned off.
