I don't know if anybody'll read it, but if enough people do the same maybe they'll get the message.

During September of 2001 I was working a temp job while searching for my first real job out of college. I was working in a mail center that handled mass mailings like the GOP fund-raisers and some AARP fund-raisers. Nobody reads those polls that you fill out. They get tossed the minute the people open the envelope.

I quit that job when we had an anthrax scare following 9/11. I took off from work and went surfing and my dad called to say that my work was on the news and people with HAZMAT suits were checking for anthrax. I called the temp agency right away and asked to be reassigned. I also got to take ciprofloxacin for two weeks just to be safe. :)
