I was at work and on my computer in a place that I shouldn't be at work.  Anyway, they mentioned that the first tower had been hit.  I got to CNN and alerted the rest of our department.  After a few hours the company sent us home.

I was in 7th grade history and my teacher was informed to turn on the tv. My fellow classmates and I  sat and watched what had happened.  :( very sad day.

I had just gotten to work, and we watched it on the news in the break room, and then they sent everyone home and closed down the office.

I was at work, 5 months pregnant, about 1 1/2 hr drive from NYC. Co-workers saw it on tv & we all watched.  The company had 2 employees there working on contract, they both got out safely.  But it was so devastating.  :'(  I will never forget September 11, 2001.   :angel11:

I lived in Buffalo NY at that time. I was at work ( we did technical support for satellite systems so we had tvs everywhere) We were all shocked. They sent us home and we had no work for a week because we relied on shipping via air and all planes were grounded. It was a sad day. :crybaby2:

I was in North Carolina on Vaction at the time. I had slept in that morning and my Wife woke me up to tell me that the one tower had been hit, I thought she was making a sick practicle joke. I went in the living room to find out she wasn't. I am Retired Military and had been working for the Federal Government at the time and called back to the office to find out if all Leave was cancelled. I think I was in shock that day, especially when the Pentagon got hit. I had know a few people that worked there.

I was at work and they called us into the break room to tell us.  We were all stuned and could not believe this could me happening here in the USA.  I was like everyone else, I cried and could not stop.  I felt so sorry for all the familys that had lost love ones.  When they announced that they killed the person that had been the head of it in May, I cried again, not for him, but because it brought all The memories back and was glad they finally got him.  May God bless every one and May God BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and keep us safe.  I have a grandson who has been to Iraq twice and hope he does not have to go back in harms way.

I was in my 5th grade classroom. We weren't allowed to go outside for recess because of "something in New York" that's all they said over the intercom. I went home on the bus and my dad was on the couch watching the news. That's when I knew what was going on.
