[QUOTE="Rawrzxor, post: 1459231, member: 51342"] I'm only 24, so I don't think it's that. Although, I guess younger people have heart attacks and strokes sometimes....I'd better go to the doctor. People are not alike, much of the time. I would have gone, as well, if my heart and shoulder weren't in pain and my teary-eyed mother wasn't begging me to stay home with her. I don't know if the heart/shoulder pain is due to stress or carpel tunnel syndrome/a calcium deposit in my shoulder. I was doing a lot of irregs in the past couple of weeks: more than I have in the past. I'm 129 pounds, so lifting 100-140 pound things is a trial: they only tell one person to go do irregs. My dad said it was probably the later, but who knows. We'll find out this morning I've also found, in the past, that loading trucks doesn't take my mind off things. I double checked, and I'm ineligible for FMLA, because I haven't been with the company 12 months, as of yet; I've been with the company for 10 months and worked 1,000 hours. Looks like they don't factor in college. Thank you for the suggestion, though. That's the thing, too. "Oh, no, aunts aren't important enough when they die, so you can't have bereavement." Basically. That's :censored:ed up. But, my FT did let me have one day, and Thanksgiving is coming up, tomorrow, anyway. Thing is, I still have a picture of the her that was not her in my wallet: every time I clock in, I see her face, and it puts me in a terrible mood. Thanks, everyone. And, I guess it is the time of the year to be thankful for what we do have. At least my family is still mostly intact. [/QUOTE]
