Yo, **** the flu

Did you get a flu shot?

 

[repeter1977]

Well, turns out to have been the bulbs. Don't know how or why, replaced one, it worked and went to the other side, messed with it a little and it came on. Frustrating but at least that drama is over. I need several years paid vacation. And to win the lottery

 

[tv1217]

Did you get a flu shot?

Nope. I usually don't bother because the few times I have gotten it, I ended up sick anyway because it was a different strain than the one covered by the vaccine or something like that.

R u gonna ddddiiiiieeee???
Is so the nwi attys will b right over so u can sign your guns away to the group.

The flu sucks. Wash your hands. Stay away from others to not get sick.

 

[tv1217]

Yeah doctor gave me a note to stay home until Monday. Bosses are gonna be sour about it but screw them, I played by their rules and got a note, they can't do anything.

 

[jedi]

So who got u sick?

 

[tv1217]

That's a mystery. I don't recall anyone at work being sick so probably just a dirty random at Wal Mart or something.

As a teacher, in the last few years before I retired, we had to have a note from a Dr. if we missed more than 2 days in a row.
As someone who had perfect attendance many school years I thought it insulting, but funny, b/c people would take off 2 days for being sick, instead of the one needed.
Before I knew about this rule, since I rarely called in sick for a day, after being out for 2 weeks b/c of surgery, I went back to school, and was sent home b/c I didn't have a note from the Dr. to be able to return.
I laughed the whole time I was off that day, getting a Dr.'s note to go back to school like I was a kid that could be faking it.

Another time when I had been out really really sick for a couple of days, they reminded me to get a Dr.'s note before I returned.
I was going back to school the next day, but the Dr. said I should stay home for 2-3 more day.
So I did (I had 180 sick days saved up anyway).

Why are you using dirty randoms from Walmart? those are one time use.

One word


Liability!!!


Work does not want you back unless an "medical expert" says you are fit to return. Cause if you (whatever) at work due to your illness you can then use them cause they made you work when you were still recovering. :eyeroll:
