I am still next, but things have been a little crazy round these parts, I live right outsode Moore Oklahoma and I work in Moore. We had the crazy tornado here on may 20th and then two days ago another round of wild ass storms...so been without power for a while and just trying to get everything together...all is well with my family and friends, no one lost their house. Several of my employees were very heavily affected, 2 lost young ones in one of the schools, and several without homes. So things are sillpretty crazy with work and trying to hep everyone out. That all said...I will be sending someone something soon...something hopefully cool and wondorous!
Good to hear you're safe and well Jimbal. I can't imagine what some folks have gone through. It really puts things into perspective.
Yeah, work has been hell, and I am the Situations officer in the event of emergencies. So when we got racked again by tornadoes this past friday I was running all over the building trying to manage almost 200 people and keep them from freaking out. I seem to thrive in this situation though, as my boss, who was technically supposed to handle everything, was freaking out so I just took control. he isnt from Oklahoma amd just didnt know what a tornado meant. I even ran outside in the middle of the worst part of the storms to grab some people out of their cars who were trying to ride it out in our parking lot. My boss was pretty shaken and I had to calm him down and assure him that this wasnt my first rodeo and I had everything under control. I wish there was more I could do for the people who lost everything, but it has helped a lot of them by having a place to go, even if it is too work.
Jimbal I've got three words for you (real life Hero).
I just hope if it came to it I would have your courage and drive. I'd rather never know
+10 Rep if I could.
That is awesome... good on you for stepping up in such a horrible situation.
