*offers you a hug* At my job doing dataloads at Verizon, I'm lucky that the markets I work with are in Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, and western Texas. One of my coworkers works the metro NYC market. I haven't talked to her much about it, but I'm sure that some of the switch technicians were at the WTC at that time, fixing circuits.

Reccomendation? Knock off early today and go hug your significant other. If you have access to kids, hug them, too. That's what I did the day after - went to my girlfriend's place and hugged her kids. It just made me realize that life is precious and kids just know how to help you see just what is precious about life.
