I still remember seeing the jets circling and turning around to land at the airport from my Apartment in the NE.


I still remember telling my boss to stuff it before leaving the office when he went on a rant about us sitting in the board room watching the news instead of making sales calls.



I was like "Who the hell is going to pick up the phone to talk about servers and PC's today". Then told him I was going to go get drunk and left.



Hitting quota meant that you had a lot of power.



I remember the internet rumors and even scattered reports of missing jets heading to major cities.



I remember waking up and watching the news first thing in the morning and hearing about the first plane and thinking what a horrible accident. Then hearing on the radio driving into work of the second hit and thinking "That's terrorism, we're going to see another atomic bomb dropped in anger".


The whole next two days was just surreal. My Sister was in New York at a Medical Conference, and they called every doctor they could into hospitals to help with casualties, and she said it was strangely quiet.
