Default Outbreak!
My boss calls me today and asks "have you been in close proximity of so and so lately?" So and so is a girl and immediately I think I'm getting nailed for some BS sexual harassment thing. I tell my boss I haven't really been around so and so and she tells me that so and so is in the hospital under quarantine for das swine flu!

So now everyone is gonna die, except me cuz I am anti social and don't hang out at the office! HA!

On a side note: the company was going to give us all flu shots and stuff but they canceled it due to budget constraints. heh.

you and me both. I'm disinfecting everything at my desk a couple times a day - loading up on vitamins, cutting out junk food even more....anything that will prevent me from catching it.

My work gave out flu shots for free this year... I got one for the first time in a long long time and bam I get sick for the first time in a long time.

One of the things they don't tell you is that when you get vaccinated your immune system is compromised for nearly 2 weeks because it's busy fighting off what it sees as an attack of whatever you're getting vaccinated for. So... your far more suseptable to other stuff.

We've got a virus circulating through the office... 50%+ are getting it and everyone has to miss 1 or 2 days of work when the fever sets in... after that you're fine.

Kind of ironic that work paid for the flu shots to help out since we're in such close quarters, but people are getting sick w/ something else as a result.

Maybe next year the should stagger the shots and do them in 2 week intervals.
