9/11 Oh No :O

During this powerful read I have came to a conclusion that they made the wrong decision when it came to rescuing the old woman. In the story they seem to be rushing due to the remaining bodies that were trapped and hidden. Feeling compelled to the stakes at hand he thought of a decision that would be faster to get the old women out. Rescuing the women seemed to have been slowing down the process. The workers worked in a frantic pace that did not give them time to actually think things through due to the chaos of the city and to help the reader indicate that is when he states "There were so many more we needed to save and this one body was slowing us down terribly"(Rieckhoff 2). This one body could have been saved if the workers had a clear mind and head and actually tried to get the women out using machines. When attempting to save someone during a collapse, things will be difficult and time will be needed to go about things in the right procedure. Again he made the wrong decision and he should of came up with a better strategy into saving her.
    I was in a different but difficult situation that happen recently when I had to make a decision on whether or not I should have two jobs or keep the job I have. Last month in august I decided to have another job doing security, I'm currently already working in retail but I needed the extra money so I filled out a job application online for a company securitas and got a interview that next week. I went in for the interview and the interviewer liked me and booked me a interview for the children museum. I was then in phrase two of the interview process where I would be interviewed by another person on the job site. I got the job after I was finished being interviewed but I had to make a decision on wanting to take it due to the hours they only provided. They wanted me to work a overnight shift on Friday and Saturday 11-7A.M I had no problem doing it but I have school on Saturday at 12pm and I thought about my mental health and physical being. I needed the extra money but I had turned it down, and now I regret it.
