ok the weather is bad here in ohio.
Its ohio. nothing new about that about.

My boss has been calling me every half hour since, 3am
asking if they have closed the office buliding.

its bad enough i get, office people calling me!!
HELLO i am in IT dont even work for your bloodly company, if you want to know if they are closed, check the website, call your boss, or check the phone message!!!

dont ask me 20 times, why is the office not closed.

bad enough i am i have 4 people on the phone from Belgium trying to fix there email server, and the wont listen to what i am saying..

so finaly my boss called again, with the same question of Why dont they close the office. so i finally lost my cool .. and suggested she stop being lazy and deal with the weather like everyone else and bring her butt in here.(lol of course i said it in a very nice tone.) cause i was to busy to keeping answering the same question from her, every 20 min. (by the way she can IM me, and ask or mail)

grrrr,

That's hilarious!

Obviously she "thinks" that the IT person truely knows everything.

After the 10th call you should have told her yes...you haven't gotten it in writing but a couple people told you.

Couldn't you just tell her it was closed and then when she got in trouble for not showing up, you could say you didn't tell her anything?

Yeah!!!! You should do that! When they call say "Yeah, actually, I think I heard they are closing at ___o'clock." That would be hilarious!!!
You wouldn't really be lying because you said you "think".
