Worked to death

I worry about this sometimes. Not that I will work myself to death or anything like that, but I worry that I will die and no one will notice. I can see if your a crazy cat lady and you live alone and don't have any family and you drop dead and are only found because it was 90 degrees in your apartment and the smell of cat urine and rotting death is too much for your neighbours to stomach. But how does that happen in a crowded office? Have we become so self absorbed that we don't notice a dead collegue sitting at their desk for 5 days? Apparently so.
