Incubus of Viral Plague?!
Question:
Incubus of Viral Plague?
My co-worker is a virtual petri dish of disease. Every time I turn around, she's sick. Being a major drama queen, she likes to emphasize just how sick she is by coughing and sneezing all over me every chance she gets. As if her telling me how awful she feels every other breath isn't enough. Thursday she kept holding her head in her hands and making this cough cough cough mixed with a boo hoo hoo sobbing noise. It was really quite comical, though my amusement was tempered by my having to pull her 90% slack.
What isn't so frikkin comical is now I HAVE IT. It's not half as bad as she was carrying on but I still feel like garbage. So much for my weekend. In the last 10 years I've been sick maybe once, but ever since the Incubus of Viral Plague has started working with me, I'm catching something every month.
So, would it be rude of me to start wearing a face mask around her? Should I spray her down with Lysol every time she comes to work?
Answers:
Maybe you could make her wear a bubble suit when she comes to work? Then she could just marinate in her germs without affecting you.
