No, but I wish the people who did would stay the heck at home. I don't wanna use my sick days because you refuse to use yours.

I assume you got a flu shot, infants are at a higher risk of getting it

Perhaps any "crud" is related to the dog treat recall thread. Just a theory though.

I assume you got a flu shot, infants are at a higher risk of getting it I got my flu shot & so did the baby, but he was due for a booster flu shot and was unprotected until he got the booster. He was due for the booster the week he got sick. Have another friend with a baby, and her little one got a 1 dose flu shot, no booster. Don't know why they were different. Our babies are the same age.

I don't do flu shots. The flu shot doesn't cover every type of flu going around and just puts a mild strain in your system as is. The irony is 1/2 the people who have had a flu shot have gotten the flu around here. I'm with you.

Never had a flu shot, although I recently accepted a pneumonia vaccine shot so I don't end up like President Bush with a hospital stay of 2 months to fight bronchitis.

We had one employee out the beginning of the week with the flu, and today two more are out. There is a cloud of lysol in the lobby right now and everyone is wiping down their areas. I never used to get flu shots until I had my first child. I get it every year now, for what it's worth, and make sure my kids get them also.

We've got 4-5 people out, some flu some other junk. One near me is out with some unnamed contagious virus and banned from work until next week. The Mrs. is coming down with something, so that's awesome.
I had my shot, and I pop Vit C pills on occasion, that's about it. I took some yesterday, will probably take more today!

I'm halfway into my second week. Stayed home all of last week and I just had someone tell me that they thought I should take a couple more days to recover. LOL...I look that bad?

One thing I really dislike is when people come to work and they are sick.
Just because you don't want to "waste" a sick day (uh, what do you think they're for?!), doesn't mean I want to get sick.
