Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash.What made it almost 7 to deal with was that the day before the 8 ， Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her 9 of boyfriends, the way she was living, the way she related to her mother, and various other things she felt she needed to 10 .

The thing is，a number of them have 6 that despite their success，they aren't happy.Some 7 of unfriendly coworkers and feel sad for eighthour workweeks devoted to tasks they 8 .Some do not respect the companies they work for and talk of feeling tired and 9 .However，instead of devoting themselves to their work，they find themselves working to support the 10 to which they have so quickly become 11 .
