I was at work, listening to the radio and they mentioned something about the first plane. I tired to get to one of the media sites but they were all jammed. Then they mentioned the second plane. We went into the conference room and started watching. All of our key personnel were in route to Utah that day so there was no one to tell us that we could go home. Being on the 22nd floor of the General Motors building was not reassuring. So then we decided we were going home.
It took 45 minutes to get from my parking garage to the main street to go home. So much was coming in over the radio so no one knew if the building was a target or not so it was scary to be stuck so close to it. I came home and watched tv all day with my National Guard roommate.
