doubleplay1970 Posted September 5 Report Share Posted September 5 ill be working which sucks. not that im looking for a day off but i cant believe the biggest tragedy that ever happened in this country and it isnt made into a holiday. I think there should have been a day of observation made and memorial services on Tv and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its all about her next week, especially on 9/11. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure there is barely anyone in this area who doesnt have some close cnnection to the events of the day. I think ill just be thanking God for everyone i know who was there before and after and survived. I cant believe my comapny made ths big thing up to put in our cafeteria on how we sent over our products to help the relief efforts of WTC. We make friggin chewing gum how the hell does chewing gum help the relief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dknybabe2929 Posted September 5 Report Share Posted September 5 I will be in work all day, but that night I am def going to go to mass. My father used to work in tower 2, but was outside getting a cup of coffee at the time the first palne hit, so he got very lucky to not get hurt at all. His company( Lehman Brothers) only lost one or two people I think. I know that for him going into the city for work next wednesday is gonig to be very very hard. I am thinking of going into the city after work to pay my respects...I am surethere will be memorials held all day down by gound zero. Everyone be safe and remember to say a prayer next wednesday for all of those who truly did not deserve what happened to them; and also for their families who ahve to live with this everyday.

Her entire office made it down 84 flights of stairs. Two of her co-workers carried a woman who was in a wheelchair all the way down, they were all on Oprah last year.

notallthere Posted September 5 Report Share Posted September 5 Originally posted by doubleplay1970 everyone would like a day off but I think this should have more meaning than just a day to stay home I feel horrible that people died. But people die everyday everywhere. I'm so sick of phonies pretending they care because its like the "in" thing to do. I'm going to be dead honest I want it to be a holiday for a day off. and sept 11th hasn't effected me in anyway. Oh and I was working in the Manhattan the day it happened and I have been to the site many times on the way to work at my old job. I didn't know anyone who died in the world trade center so i am not going to pretend I feel bad because I don't, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbiegirl Posted September 5 Author Report Share Posted September 5 Originally posted by notallthere i am not going to pretend I feel bad because I don't, so basically anything tragic could happen to anyone anywhere and as long as it doesn't affect you DIRECTLY, you won't care or feel bad ??well geez, that's a really shitty way to think !!

barbiegirl Posted September 5 Author Report Share Posted September 5 not only is it disturbing because it's close to home .... it's because it's OUR COUNTRY where we live FREE everyday. if you can't show an ounce of respect or sympathy for an event as tragic as this - then get the F out of the damn country !!!
