Yesterday a man at work had a heart attack after pushing one of his co workers car. That's the sort of person he is. Hes an EL2 and the guy who owned the car is an APS3. Thats what I like the most about this man. He was a chronic smoker until 2 months ago and had put on weight recently as a result of that. He as a really really stressful job. Hes going to be ok.

- No one called an Ambulance, they called his partner to come and get him.
- The attitudes today at work is "doctors are trying to frighten him by saying 15 minutes more and the outcome would not be good" This is the male view.
I firmly believe that prolonged stress is a killer. In the meantime you live a retched life, usually harnessed in a chronic disease of some sort. I have lived like this for 10 years. Fortunately, I now can manage stress. However today I was feeling very secondhand at work. Someone asked me was I ok and I said yeah, I'm having a hot flush, but realised after 1/2 hour it had not stopped. There were work pressures and I found myself tossing up weather I should go home or not. Then it occurred to me (and yesterdays scene come to mind) I am more important than some training lab that needs computers and I went home.
This is a little prezzy I am hoping he will hang off his door as a get well soon message.
