Lawdwaz Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I'm not but it sure is running through my work place. We have two ladies and seven guys, including me working there. One of the ladies has been sick and five of the guys have had it now over the past couple weeks. Bad cough, headache, the runs and vomiting are the issues. Three of the guys have had it twice! We have a plumber that does work for us occasionally and he was supposed to do some work for me this afternoon........yup, you guessed it. He called this morning and said he was sick as a dog. Hopefully none of my family gets it as it sounds brutal. How about you guys/gals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turkeyfeathers Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Wife has had upper respiratory issues for awhile now , daughter , mom n dad too. So far I've been lucky to evade it. Saw on news that flu is at an all time low so far. They claim it's because it's been so nice out and people aren't cooped up in their house etc and spreading germs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BizCT Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I had a bad cold around New Years but didn't lose my streak. Still have yet to call out sick in my full time professional career (8+ years). I use my sick days as vacation days and put in for them in advance to play golf, hunt, fish, etc. My wife, on the other hand, has a bad immune system or something as she is always getting colds, etc. I'm probably bringing home the germs from the train/NYC.

Elmo Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I "boomeranged" a cold a little over a month ago. I was sick, several of my staff were sick, then it came back to me and I got sick again. Nothing bad though. Only 2 of the 6 people in my office that I know of actual called out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
