[...] Having an interior office is such a tease. Yes, I have a place where I can shut the door on sick coworkers, but I am constantly reminded that I haven’t quite achieved greatness a window view [...]

I am so with you on this, manners be damned. It made me crazy when the guy over the cube at my old place of work was doing his quarterly *coughing snorting hacking sputum yet i am so essential to this place i can’t possibly take a day off* thing. Now I have to contend with friends who stop by, sit at my dining table, share my wine and play with the baby THEN tell me after that they were up all night two days prior vomiting from a bug going around the office. Just wanted to spread the love to me and my 8 month old, I guess.

Guilty as charged! I went to work sick and when I couldn’t handle it anymore I went to tell my boss. I walked in and said, “I’m not feeling well…” She immediately put her hand out to stop me from entering her office! And so I went home.

I can’t stand it when people come to work sick. I too keep a can of lysol at my desk and hand sanitizer in my pusre in the winter. I have little ones to worry about. If they get sick I miss work, and that’s not good.

I used to have a coworker who kept a can of lysol with her at all times. She would also travel with antibacterial wipes. One can never be too careful, can one? I noticed my baby girl gnawing on the handle of the shopping cart at Target today and got totally grossed out by that. Next time I go I am totally bringing my clorox wipes.
