Me opening a wrapper near the computer and watching a crumb fly into my keyboard might be the worst thing that has ever happened on this day.

Animal-Mother posted:9/11 photos remind me how lovely cars were back then You take that back! My 89 Honda Civic was gold. And it got stolen a week after 9/11. And I was not sure what bothered me more, that my beloved 89 Honda Civic was gone, or that the criminals took it a time "we had all come together".

ProperGanderPusher posted:I remember the following Halloween where we were all asked to forego traditional spooky Halloween costumes at school and dress up as police and soldiers and firemen instead. They insisted cops were IN and scary things were OUT. my dad punched me in the mouth when I was 15 (2001) because I said gently caress cops after he got arrested for assaulting the gay folks next door (he's a racist trumpist and sucks). the only better mugshot I've seen was trump's. too bad that fucker bush who let all those people die (overseas and in the towers) wasn't right beside them.

On that day in 2001 a classmate came up to me in band class and blamed "my people" for the attacks, oblivious that my family came from Peru. I also distinctly remember my Dad saying "Watch Bush start another war" per verbatim. welp that was my 9/11 story thanks for reading

I lived in Cali and it happened before school. My school was cancelled for the day while everyone everywhere was seemingly freaking out and watching the news all day. I got to stay home, it was a day of all time.

Was working at Staples at the time stocking shelves, the store was strangely empty. Had a coworker pulled me into the break room just in time to see a plane hit the second tower on a tiny TV. They sent us home shortly thereafter, that job sucked.

Hey I worked at a staples, it was my second job. I can confirm that job loving sucked. If you're reading this, Lisa, gently caress you.

I was in 3rd grade, and I legitimately don’t remember finding out what had happened for like, a month I guess my parents were super good about clamping down on watching the news when we were home?

I wish I remembered my bosses name because I'd join you in telling our former bosses to gently caress off. I was hired to work the tech department since I'm savvy and antisocial. They instead had me working as a red shirt cashier and warehouse person. They'd make me build office chairs while working the front and only cashier position. Constantly dangling a carrot of, "if you keep up the good work maybe one day you'll work in the tech department." Lisa would sit in the back on facebook all day having me also organize her manager papers while working the register. Tammy would tell me to smile more, "you'd probably get a better position". Lisa on multiple occasions told me every little thing I'd do wrong over the intercom and employee radio for everyone to hear. I called in on a busy day and said I wasn't showing up anymore. It was liberating. E: Oh yeah and some lady slapped me in the face for no reason. That was pretty cool. Grey Cat fucked around with this message at 17:13 on Sep 11, 2023 |

Uriah Heep created this masterpiece a couple months back from the muskrocket photshop thread that absolutely deserves a spot in this thread, well tangentially anyway I guess, it'll make me feel less bad for a staples derail https://i.imgur.com/N6HijHB.mp4 Link to original post, https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=4017184&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=2#post527904638 Grey Cat posted:I was hired to work the tech department since I'm savvy and antisocial. That sounds particularly hellish, my coworkers weren't too bad. To manufacture consent, my boss had me arrange an end cap with new stationary by myself and a couple days later said I did a terrible job and used that as justification to fire me. Pretty sure none of that is decided by anyone on the floor, how/where stuff is decided by corporate. digitalist fucked around with this message at 17:27 on Sep 11, 2023 |

Corporate sends a "planogram" and some poor shmucks at the store have to make it happen. Extra fun when the shelves and space literally don't work so you have to wing it and explain why you had to do it differently later.

This is why they banned the phrase "hey koolaid!" in the one world trade center. There's an automated turret system that kills anyone uttering the phrase before it's finished.

I've listened to the Howard Stern 9/11 episode in the background a few times in the last few months and it feels so uncomfortable to listen to in the here and now for several different reasons. It's worth a listen, don't get me wrong, but there's this mix of depression, humor, anger, confusion, etc. that is being said before the war on terror really starts and the attitudes start shifting after that.
