To stay off work with a common cold?

[VinegarTitsThePorker]

All this talk of swine flu, Its making me feel guilty. It makes my slight (however, progressively worsening) cold feel like a big dose of hypercondria (sp?)

I work in and air conditioned open plan office, where my germs will spread like a dose of clap in a brothel. I dont see any point in infecting my colleagues, with my cold, that is, not the clap

I don't think vinegar's really bothered about our opinions anyway

Fair point!

if the cold is mild get to work you lazy wench ! if and when it gets worse - high temp etc then stay off !

Are you a man, by any chance?
I would send my child to nursery with a cold so I would go to work too.
Germs are EVERYWHERE in the air; your colleagues will catch it somewhere if not from you.
