[QUOTE="stevetheupsguy, post: 765628, member: 9662"] Straight forward, yes, insensitive, nah. Just one question. You said during the prom. Did you mean at the prom or while the prom was going on? I agree with getting back in the saddle, but sometimes, some people need more time than others, though it's hard to say when too much time has elapsed. +1 It sounds like there's more to your story. I mean the story of after this all happened. Your reply to Upstate that it was a job, sounds like you're not happy as a driver, even if this never occurred. If you're not happy being a driver (service provider), then you should move on to something that brings you joy. If you're honestly traumatized, I think the best thing to do is to get back into that pkg car and overcome your fear. Don't worry about UPS pushing you. Do your job, and before you know it, this will be an historic part of your life and another chapter in your book. I've been on the business end of a gun before, as well, only I got shot. After about 2 weeks off, I went right back to doing what I was doing, where I had been doing it. For quite some length of time afterwards I was afraid everytime I saw someone that looked similar to the gunman, who btw was never captured. I eventually got over it all and am able to look back unafraid. This happened almost 25 years ago, and though I remember it vividly, it doesn't mess up my life. Don't let this thing that happened, screw you up. [/QUOTE]
