The Swine Flu Shot a Waste of Time!

Under my union contract, I get sick and vacation days. First day sick is taken out of vacation -- kind of covers those mental health days without using up your sick leave. Of course, in my case after 3+ months off last year, I don't have much sick or vacation time to use.

My workplace is the direct opposite of Trek's -- you can't swing the proverbial dead cat without hitting some sort of H1N1/Flu prevention flyer, poster, email, dancing bear.....

I'm not sayin' who I work for but someone once mailed a bill to my employer addressed only with our slogan "no job is so urgent, no service so important that we can not afford to do our job safely" and it got here.

Perhaps those days are gone. Wash your hands everyone, sneeze into your elbow and be safe out there!

I wonder what would happen if I did try to show up at work the way I've been for the last several days.

First, someone would probably notice that I couldn't stand up or walk around because of fatigue. Not being able to talk without coughing could have gotten a bit of attention. Finally, my inability to stay awake might have been a bit of a problem.

Planning another day home tomorrow.

Ha! I used to work for them too; haven't thought of that slogan in years.
