heading to rex urgent care in a few minutesi sent an email to my team at work saying that i'll try to be in laterthen my boss sends out an email saying that we're short staffed because in addition to me, 3 other people are out sick and 2 are on vacation. there are only 12 people on our team.so i reply and say that i'll definitely be in as soon as i can, i can tough it out with meds.the boss above my boss emails me and says "dude, stay home if you are sick"what should i do? 6 people isn't nearly enough to get all of our shit done...

what kind of sick?
1/29/2009 10:30:05 AM
stay home so that the 6 that are left don't get sick, too.
1/29/2009 10:30:19 AM
^^feels like strep.^i was gonna wear a surgical mask and shut the door to my office for that reason ]
1/29/2009 10:30:29 AM
man up
1/29/2009 10:31:12 AM
Work from homeor stay home and do nothing. Don't get getting everyone else sick, especially if the bossman already said to stay home.
1/29/2009 10:31:33 AM
stay home. don't insubordinate
1/29/2009 10:31:54 AM
work remotely?
1/29/2009 10:31:56 AM
1/29/2009 10:32:01 AM
you should go into work so that everyone else gets sick and has to deal with your second hand aidsunfriggan believable
1/29/2009 10:32:20 AM
oh yeah, i was also supposed to give a meeting at 2:30 that i'd really prefer not to cancelotherwise i'd just work over VPN.
1/29/2009 10:34:29 AM
1/29/2009 10:35:04 AM
ahaha yeah, as soon as i said that, i got the meeting cancellation thing in iCal and my boss's boss said "evan is sick. don't bother him"i love my bosses]

Odd!
1/29/2009 10:55:06 AM
If you can post on TWW you can work.
1/29/2009 10:55:59 AM
yes, i can workthe question is whether or not i want to spread disease to my coworkers
1/29/2009 10:56:33 AM
I would take the risk.
1/29/2009 10:57:24 AM
Seedless people don't influence my thoughts, because by default in my view you are confused about life.
1/29/2009 10:58:42 AM
work remotely, go in just for that meeting if it's that important
1/29/2009 10:58:50 AM
Haha, you got me dawg, but take your ass to work.
1/29/2009 10:59:10 AM
i figured if my boss's boss tells me to stay home, i should stay home.he already cancelled the meeting for me anyway. now to go to rex and get cough syrup
1/29/2009 11:00:13 AM
I went to the urgentcare at Durleigh/Bluerigde (i think the same one you are talking about) and a hot PA gave me a shot in my ass. Wooooo
1/29/2009 11:01:20 AM
i've had a bad cough for like 10 days now. probably should go to the doc at some point
1/29/2009 11:02:48 AM
That ain't that 'dry' cough is it?
1/29/2009 11:03:21 AM
I'm sorry to say this evan, but people don't just 'get better' when they suffer from AIDS.plan on being sick for a while.
1/29/2009 11:07:30 AM
Everlast FTL.
1/29/2009 11:08:40 AM
its probably aids dudeI'm Big Business and i approved this message
1/29/2009 11:08:46 AM
^^^ Hey, at least they've discovered a cure now. You just have to have your bone marrow wiped out and replaced with that from someone who has the natural immunity to aids. That's something like 1% of the population.
1/29/2009 11:13:54 AM
i'm glad i don't have aidsalso, it's not funny to joke about aids.
1/29/2009 11:16:18 AM
The booty flu has got a hold on you
1/29/2009 11:22:57 AM
We've had that type of sick hanging around our house for awhile now, it took about a week to run its course. [Edited on January 29, 2009 at 11:29 AM. Reason : the strep related sick, not the booty related sick]
1/29/2009 11:28:07 AM
1/29/2009 12:05:31 PM
the gay cancer.
1/29/2009 12:06:11 PM
It's been funny to joke about AIDS since like the mid 90's
1/29/2009 12:15:40 PM
yeah, ever since all the "Magic" jokes began
1/29/2009 12:16:41 PM
oh noes, you caught the bug but anyway, you are probably overestimating the importance of your job. they'll survive for a a day, and the world will keep turning. just don't get the rest of them sick, and they'll appreciate it.
1/29/2009 12:20:24 PM
you hear that evan?you keep your dangle out of their poopers. they don't need to be sick like you.
1/29/2009 12:23:01 PM
Hey Evan, how is your mother?
1/29/2009 12:58:44 PM
^ahahahaha
1/29/2009 1:27:58 PM
Nice boss. They just cut everyone's sick time by 4 days here, creating an atmosphere where you come in anyway 'cause you know you'll be even sicker later in the year. They want people to spread sickness + suffer at work.
1/29/2009 1:32:11 PM
i bet it's just a sore throat caused by a virus.there has been an incidence of strep going around, but there have also been some sightings of staph.do you have a fever over 101 and body aches?
1/29/2009 1:33:22 PM
yet you're well enough to post about it on tww.....
1/29/2009 2:08:47 PM
This has prolly alredy been said, but if you're sick, stay home to reduce the risk of more ppl getting sick.
