so just found out today that my co-worker whom I've worked closely with over the past year at this client passed away. He had fallen ill and the team just thought it was a common cold. It had progressed and we finally sent him home two weeks ago, which was when we lost contact with him. He was a very dedicated worker so this was unusual not to hear from him, even while he's working from home. Fast forward 10days, and we received word late last night that he had passed away and was found in his apartment. He was a lone ranger so nobody knows when this happened, not even his parents. He was only 36 years old. I'm sure the traveling life style played a role, but it's just sad that he passed away and was alone. We can only hope that he went to bed one night and just never woke up.

It really puts things into perspective. We work like dogs, but at the end of the day none of that matters. Life is fragile and we cannot take things for granted.

Words escape me. This is a tragic story and a sober reminder to focus on what's truly important in this life.

sorry to hear, b15. :(

i completely agree with wat you said. this is the reason why i stopped long term biz travel entirely since my kids were born to be with them and my wife as much as i can. :)

This will be something I will have to deal with when my wife and I start a family. It's a catch 22 because I like the job and it will pretty much ensure that I can comfortably provide for my family and allow my wife to stay at home. But at the same time I don't want to be gone 4days a week

hey, my wireless phone came in for the garage. :D i use it more or less as an intercom to the house.
