Thanks Chicka, I appreciate it.

I must have only half of the wisdom I should have....

And then they took the other half away?

Al, it's also the circumstances around his passing that makes it infuriating. I found out he was having trouble loading the food laden coolers into his van and had to hold onto the wall to just walk....and nobody offered to help. Then when he hadn't left for fifteen minutes nobody checked to see why he had not left until the interim c.e.o got there and checked on him herself. She was the one that called the E.M.T.s

That is awful! I'm so sorry for your loss.

JD4570,I am so sorry for your loss. Sometimes the people we are closest to share no blood with us.

@perchie.girl this all started with that hen when she went broody and her brood sister killed all of her babies when they hatched. It was sad. But she was never the same afterwards.

Forgot to add, @Alaskan, looks like you have a little piece of heaven on earth to call home!

DH and I considered retiring to Alaska. A colleague that he mentored tried to talk us into it telling us how desperate they were for doctors and nurses up there. We did the research and decided that it would be too hard for us to acclimate to the harsher, longer winters.

JD, I hated to like your posts, though there was some good news provided. So sorry to hear about the other drivers' demise. Those folks at the food place should all be ashamed of themselves and I hope they feel the guilt associated with their actions, or more accurately, lack thereof. Condolences.

Wisdom teeth are out but you still have other teeth?

I was missing two wisdom teeth, only had the two on top. I must have only half of the wisdom I should have....

Mine were in sideways, hence the trouble extracting them.

Hey folks, how is it going? Things have changed in my world. My job is no longer in danger and the senior center is not only going to stay open, but services are going to be expanded. They are getting one more bus and are going to be serving dine in meals cafeteria style.
Unfortunately tragedy struck yesterday. The other meal delivery driver goes to get the meals some 40 plus miles from the center. While loading up and preparing to leave the other center he had a heart attack....and died. He was not only a co-worker but a friend. He and his wife are like family to me.

Sorry for the loss of your friend.

JD, sorry you lost your friend. Maybe they will start assigning two people to load the food from now on.

JD, sorry you lost your good friend. But also glad to hear your job is safe now.
