Sept 11, 2001, like the bombing of Pearl Harbor on Dec 7, 1941, will be a day we will always remember in infamy.
Where were you when you first heard about the attack on America?
I didn't turn the TV on before I left for work and heard it while driving to work. At first, I thought it was a joke but once I found that it had actually happened, I started crying on the freeway. It is amazing I didn't get into an accident.
When I got to work, everyone was talking about it. Almost every call we would get, the student was talking about this. Almost everyone was in total shock. I wanted to deck this one girl though because she said it was "no biggie" since she didn't know anyone who worked in the towers. Everyone around her just looked at her in amazement at her uncaring attitude. Terrorists had attacked us and she didn't even care.
During the first hour of work, the supervisors were running up and down the isles, gathering in small groups. A bit later, they told us to shut our computers and phone-lines down as we were shutting down for the day. I work for a Federal Student Loan company.
DH and I spent the day watching the news in total shock.
Where were you when you heard about 9/11?
