Stay Home!!

Flu season is here. A few of my coworkers have come into work when they should have been home. The office sounds like a ER waiting area! I find it rude that they are passing the flu on to the rest of the office. Don't know if I should just not say anything or speak up?

Is it Tuberculosis or a contagious illness? Some people can’t afford to stay home and not get paid. Just do your due diligence to prevent getting sick and let others decide when they're too sick for work.

You could talk to your boss about making a general announcement instead of singling out those sickos and risk getting on bad terms with fellow co-workers.

Mark wash your hands and allow space between you and your co sickworker ( I just made that up) Anyway if you have taken the flu shot for the season you'll be fine. But be careful with that tid'bit of chance about leaving cough drops on desk. My desk is my space.... Don't leave anything on my desk or you'll not like the results. Poor nutrition and poor sleep are the biggest contribution to contracting a cold or flu. Now try that before you drop off cough drops.

Maybe just discretely drop off some cough drops and zicam and everyone's desk who's coughing......it's definitely not ok to get everyone else sick
