Red face Hard to believe it's been 7 years

9/11/2001



Where were you? What do you remember? Have things changed since then? Better? Worse?


I arrived at work a little late, and had only heard bizarre news on the radio about
a Pentagon bombing. I was freaking out. When I got to work, I heard the real news...

We all went home and spent the next 24 hours glued to our TV sets, in shock.

I had just gotten to work when a coworker broke the news. I thought he was joking, until my boss came out and told us all to take the day off...

I was getting ready for work, then got a few phone calls. It felt so strange, where it was an attack on our country, but I didn't feel any sense of threat being on the west coast. Regardless RIP to the victims.
