Woman working 4 jobs to make ends meet dies while napping in car between shifts — RT USA

A New Jersey woman who worked four jobs, who sometimes “wouldn’t sleep for five days,” according to a co-worker, died Monday while napping between shifts in her car on the side of the road.

Maria Fernandes died in her 2001 Kia Sportage after inhaling carbon monoxide and fumes from an overturned gas container she kept in the car, according to the New York Daily News.

    Heartbreaking. Says a lot about the world we live in today. Reblogging this; especially on this Labor Day. May we all take a moment to think about our work, those who truly labor, and what’s really important in life. Thanks, Susan!
