I was in my first class of the day as senior in high school. The janitor came in and told the teacher to turn on the tv. I didn't see the first plane hit live but did see the second..

We were finishing a project in a really bad neighborhood. An undercover narcotic sting operation was unfolding right before our eyes and I thought that was the reason we lost communication with our cell phones. Our boss finally gets ahold of my partner and informs him to stop production and get back to the office which was in a largely populated Middle Eastern neighborhood. We normally have Howard Stern on the radio but didn’t on this day so we literally had no idea what was happening. Our boss just told us we were under attack from OBL and carefully get home.
I was also transitioning out of my bar tending days. I made a lot of money doing this but Tuesday, September 11th would be my last day. I came in for my shift around 4:00 to an empty bar. When I normally made $150-200 per night, I walked with $20. Our country just got its ass whipped and everyone was in fear. People were rushing to gas stations and surplus stores, stocking up on canned foods and bottled water. I watched an overwhelming stream of nervous customers flock to the gas station across from the bar, each willing to pay triple the amount of the normal price. I kept my bar in a clean, presentable fashion for anyone who might’ve graced me with his/ her presence on this night but almost nobody showed. I closed early and informed the manager that tonight was the last night I would be tending bar. Real life was about to happen.
