Being only 22 and my head in the sand, I wasn’t fully aware of the World Trade Center buildings (I recognised them later) at the time and thought the boss was blowing it out of proportion. The radio was full of the stories and it sounded horrific, yet still I could not picture what was going on to the extent it was. This was the days before TV’s in restaurant/bars and before smart phones, so access to a TV was limited in a kitchen.
