I recently started a new job. One that I love! I work at a local vet's office, owned by two very nice people. The only issue is they live so close to the office, (as well as the other two employee's) they could walk to work in horrid wind and rain and make it there safe. I however, live about twenty minute's away. I told them when gustav looked to be heading this way, there was a chance that my fiance' and I would be going to stay with family due to the flooding and a few other issue's.

The whole problem is- even now they don't belive Gustav will come any where near us! But so many people are leaving the coast, so as a public service they are taking in any animal's for a small fee, we already have several from New Orlean's. If we do get hit, they will stay at the clinic. I have already been told come rain or shine, I need to be at work on Tuesday.

I feel really bad about going stay with family while my co-worker's go to work. I don't know if I should plan now to go or plan to leave with my fiance'. We are not in an evac zone.

I feel like my life is more important than my job.

But what would you do?

  1. I know my life is more important than any job. I would evacuate as soon as the notice came in. Jobs come and go, its not worth losing my life over.
