[QUOTE="LiL"Comet", post: 436603, member: 16774"] Janice I hope you stay on BC and continue to talk with us, Jimi had a lot of friends here and you do as well. I look at UPS as my second home literally I'm there as much if not more. These upsers are truly all remarkable people and we all come together in times of need. Here at my location last week there was a tier 3 accident which is what ups views as the worst on a level of tier 1, 2, or 3. It was a fatality with the other person (lady) whom hit our ups truck head on. It's absolutely terrible these things happen and I find myself asking sometimes why? Life is never a prediction but rather the unpredictable. I truly have tears running down my face when I'm reading your post wishing there were something I can do to help you. After reading this post on Tuesday (I believe) I did figure out how I could help you in a sense (others). I am a full time supervisor at ups and have noticed the past couple weeks that one of my employees has lost some weight, been withdrawn from everyone else which he is normally not. Last night I was able to get through to him, I just made myself available all night walking by saying something when I got close, just simple words. Then he opened up to me told me what all was going on in his life and continued to pour out emotions that have been building up since this began with his home life. Suicide was mentioned several times during the conversation and I thought of you and Jimi instantly. Letting him continue talking I spoke with him about our EAP options which is a network of a support I guess you would say. He spoke with a therapist on the phone and has a appointment set up today that I hope he made it to. With your story Janice I was able to have to strength to talk with him about something that I maybe would have not taken too seriously last week. So Thank You for coming to BC and please stay with us if you do wish, we all seem to learn from one another or I know at-least I do.:wink2: [/QUOTE]
