So I get into the office today and seriously like 50% of the people in here are coughing, sniffing noses, and just sick. I don't want to be sick thie weekend, gah!

Can I take a sick day because eveeryone else didn't? Why does everyone have to come in and bring all those germs. I never take a sick day, I never get sick during the week. Just the weekend. It's just not fair. I will get sick over the weekend and be well by Monday, it sucks.

What can I do to convince everybody to keep there no good lousy sickness out of the office.

But seriously, I want to take a sick day, so I don't get sick [Roll Eyes]

Do it, Zevvy. Can you just call in with a personal day?

Take a mental health day. Hey, it might work.

I take extra C and Bromelain when I suspect a bug. Doesn't seem to work, though. For a while I was pretty convinced it was making me sick faster.

All you need is an immune system like mine, that was battling mono and tonsilitis for the better part of 6 months. After I got rid of the tonsils, my white blood cells are in fighting trim and I've been sick at all exactly once since, and that was a mild case of the sniffles. My bloodcells are now little superbeings that can squelch anything that comes their way. [Big Grin]

Sheesh. It sounds like half of Hatrack should have called in for a mental health day today.

But if people next to you are coughing, maybe you should ask them if they'll reimburse you for missed work if you get sick.

Try not to think too much about avoiding the sickness around you, Josh. Go buy some Purell and use it a few times a day and relax. [Big Grin]
