[size=14pt]Woman Dies in Her Cubicle — But Nobody Notices Until the Next Day [/size]


Ever feel like no one notices all the effort you put into your job?
Well, hopefully they at least notice you're alive and breathing. If not, you could find yourself in the same situation as Rebecca Wells, a 51-year-old woman who died in her cubicle Friday in Los Angeles County.
Though she died on Friday, she was unnoticed at her desk in the Department of Internal Services until Saturday. The county coroner is yet to determine the cause of death.

(More on TIME.com: See the best pictures of the week)
When she passed away,  Wells, who worked in risk management, was performing an audit. Despite not noticing the deceased, one of her coworkers remembered, "She was always working, always working." Maybe, after this event, her coworkers will check on one another more often.
The tragedy reminds us of Mad Men, when a tireless worker passes away at her own desk:

Poor single woman.
When people will be preaching to you young women to choose ONLY men that will cherish and hold you for life, you will refuse and tell the world your "pastors" made you choose to-quench-for- "cyber-419" lovers instead.
Some dude has yimmed this poor woman to death. cheesy

Mu he he he he he he embarassed

If only there was a man in her life to lubricate her "engine" from time to time huh? Her life would not end like this ke.
She prolly died typing on NL, while scattering her nyansh around all other social cyber fora from home or work like some of "us".  grin

Most will even leave their marriages thinking the swamp is always greener on the outside.

Then in your "old cargo" dreams, you become internet/intranet whores losing sleepless nights with depression, and passing
out from fatigue and sheer exhaustion after series of failed yimmings and yammings. cheesy

The dangers of social isolation are numerous.
Not even a husband, boyfriend or child at home to ask after her?
What in the world was she working so hard for?
To settle gambling debts or to re-finance loans obtained for purchasing illicit narcotics?  undecided

@Topic,Have heard of something similar sometime ago.Its possible all she had was "online friends".Social isolation has got more 'cons' than "pros".No coffee break,no nothing.

It's sad that people take such pleasure in the death of others.
