Back in June, we hired a guy. It didn't work out, and we let him go at the end of July.
Today we found out he died a week and a half ago. He was 35. What the fuck.

Smonster, most likely a nap since I have been sleeping like crap. Dreading the dentist is bad for getting good sleep.

Whoa, P-C. Any idea how he died?

None at all. He was having health issues when he was here, and he revealed further health issues to me in confidence, so I was thinking it was health-related, but my co-worker is convinced he killed himself.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yikes.
A former coworker of mine died from a terrible disease she got not long after being laid off, but long enough that she couldn't retroactively apply for the COBRA coverage she had declined. The whole thing was really sad.

The weirdest thing is that I was JUST thinking about him today. I saw a figure moving past my desk, and I idly thought it was him, even though I knew it wasn't. I hadn't thought about him in weeks.

Our wings are not tired.
P-C wow. Would I have known him?

From what I remember of his CV, I don't think he worked at your company, but let me e-mail you.

Ooh, Jesse, that kind of thing is what scares me (and makes me want universal healthcare!!)
I'm a little peeved--it's prime leaf-peeping time, and we have a dismal forecast for the next week and a half. Want sun!
...but we don't really have much in the way of leaves to peep anyway, since we dont' get the right weather for them to be pretty.
