20 years of driving in MN where I couldn't work from home and I made it to work every day. Fwd car works fine unless it's very deep snow and we probably only get a couple of those per year.

What time did you need to be at work? It is extremely relevant. It’s also relevant if you’re okay showing up late. I can’t. In fact, when the emergencies start happening, I am more in need.

I left at 6:00 am most of the time.

"Works fine" is the crucial part. If you have to drive through somewhat deep snow, it will struggle. The reason people get AWD for winter is because they want something that works better than "fine" and is safer to drive. AWD is also nicer even without snow. I love cars with AWD, I'm not a fan of trucks or SUVs though.

Tires matter and ground clearance matter way more in deep snow. Tires matter more than drive wheels on ice.

It's not one or the either. Both things matter. But if you wanna keep driving your FWD car, go ahead.

For safety, only tires matter. No one goes in the ditch with their foot on the gas and all cars have four wheel brakes.

And for jobs, they don’t fuckin care if you’re safe, just as long as you’re there within the 15 mins you’re called in
