Man, this is an odd one, and a tough one. I've been here like 13 years, and one of my buddies for all the years I've been here had a heart attack right on his fork truck. I unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it) was not here, I was out sick yesterday. Stopped breathing and was gone, but two other employees did cpr and managed to bring him back. An ambulance came and got him, but he did not make it. A good friend to many here, and a super loyal and awesome employee, he worked here for 35 years, and was set to retire next year. It's obviously been a very difficult day here, very quiet, lots of tears.
It's difficult too, but the work must go on, and redistribution of his duties has to happen immediately. It's a very heavy experience, and though I've dealt with death as far back as I can remember like most of us, this is the first one at work.
Anyone else had this happen?
