Just got word my cousin died in a car crash last night coming home from work. Hit some ice, rolled the car, was ejected through the moonroof. Im told he wasnt wearing a seatbelt.
 
 I dont know if i should tell anyone at work cause they might send me home, but i dont know how useful im going to be for the rest of the day if i stay here...
 
 Also, my female dog Phoebe had a sudden heart attack last wednesday and died on the way to the vet.
 
 crappy  week.
  my condolences, but please watch the language.

sorry to hear that man. i almost did the same thing last night, out of no where it dropped below freezing and started snowing and i came pretty close to doing the same
  edit-better off taking the day off..esp if you work with machinery. distraction is why i don't really have the tip of my finger. you don't have to go home though, you could just go somewhere like a park or someplace where no one can bother you for a few hours

You go to hofstra? So you were on LI as well. He was working at the cheesecake factory in smithtown i think, on his way home to bayshore around 4am. Dunno what road it was. Probably hit the same weather as you.

  i don't think you know how much that scares the living crap out of me. i live about 15 minutes from there, and i was driving 20 minutes away from smithtown. yeah, the weather was pretty bad...my guess is he was probably on vets highway or nichols road.

Sorry to hear that NiQ. It's best to take the day off. You'll be distracted at work all day and I'm sure your family would rather have you with them.

After I found out my grandpa died two months ago I worked a ten hour shift until I was physically exhausted.

Now's your chance to get some paid leave, take it and save your vacation for a time you want to enjoy.
 
 My sincere condolences go out to you.

No paid leave, i just took off to come home with my managers permission. Im just a co-op (intern) there so i dont have too much responsibility and im not missing much this afternoon.
 
 Thanks for the condolences guys, it means a lot. Im so out of it right now, trying to keep my mind in other places.

Sorry to hear that, NiQ. Don't try to force your way through th day if you don't think you can do it. A break might be the best thing for you.

Sorry to hear that Niq. I was in a car accident yesterday. The other driver flleed the scene, and I couldn't get a plate number. And seeing I only had liability, im screwed.
