Question - (2 December 2008) 2 Answers - (Newest, 4 December 2008)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Hi All,

i need to pick some brains here.

I work in a small office with no windows which we can open for fresh air but that isnt the problem...The problem is that 1 of my colleagues is always ill!! She always has colds,coughs,tummy bugs etc... But instead of staying at home she comes in to work and spreads her germs!! she is very good at her job and friendly with our manager so its tricky to complain about her even though myself and collegaues have mentioned this-but if she wants to come to work then no ine can stop her.

She has a bad diet-drinks loads of coke and eats junk all day-now dont get me wrong we have told her to eat more helithy and build up her immune system but she doesnt listen!!

Why should we spend all day getting her germs and then getting ill ourselves and and be subjected to her constant noisy coughs?

HELP!!!

Best wishes,

Wash your hands and get a good germ killer for your hands that doesn't require soap.

Take many zinc tablets, but not so much that you get sick.

Maybe get a new job. LOL Sounds like she likes being sick and doesn't care how it affects other people.
