Last week my co-worker came in to work sick. I overheard her telling her dad on the phone she had a fever. The rules are if you are vomiting, have diarrhea, or running a fever, you are contagious, so DO NOT COME TO WORK... and she came to work running a fever anyway.
Friday on my way to the agility trial I started feeling sick.
Saturday woke up feeling like I was sick but figured it might have been just crappy humidity in the hotel room I stayed in...
Yesterday, yes, 100% absolutely sick. I had a feeling I was going to show up to work and my third co-worker was also going to be sick, because if she got ME sick, more than likely she got him sick too.
Sure enough, he came into work and sat down and asked me a question and I was like "...are you sick too?"
"Yeah."
"I knew it. She got us both sick."
"Yeah, I spent my entire weekend cursing her."
It's actually kind of humorous because we are speaking in the same low, sickly, congested voice. And neither of us have been able to sleep, so we're also both quite sleep deprived. Humorous and horrible. I'm so bloody exhausted.

That's the worst. My rule is, if I don't want you in my office getting me sick, I don't want you anywhere in the office getting anyone sick. Either take your computer and go work at home, or take a sick day. I have been known to put "Sickies not welcome" signs on my door
