GERM FREAK!
Having a rough time healing and now I have "the bug".
Where I work, I am exposed to so many germs. I am the last stop on the train for the sickies who are sent home.
If I know they are ill beforehand, I sign them out. Sometimes it is too late! After they have signed their name and laid the pen down, they say, "I am sick, I am going home!" Great! And you used your germy little hand on my pen and spread your germs in my area! (thinking to myself) But I say, "Feel better, get some rest." Then as soon as they are out of sight, I grab my germ killing wipes and feverishly scrub everything they have touched. Some of the kids know what a germ phobic I am and tell me beforehand, "I am sick, can you call my Mom?" I respond: "Gladly and thank you."
The worse part is I can't have the fresh air anymore. They changed the windows and now they don't open. Crazy! A public place filled with people and I can't throw open the window to cleanse the environment. I have used every sick day they have given me. I have never taken a sick day unless I was really sick. I think jobs like mine, where I am the last stop in Germ Land, I should get extra sick days. Your job should be prorated by the exposure you have to the public. Makes sense but it will never happen. So all I can do is wash 50 times a day and scrub. I should have been a doctor. At least I could have prescribed meds for all the sickies!
