  The misspelled achey and lousey (unless they really do have lice!) combined with the exclamation points makes this even better.

  The second I feel sick I don’t go to work, not to pervent other people from getting sick but because I hate work so much.

  I agree–people with lice absolutely have no business coming into work.

  Me too, colds wouldn’t spread so easily if people would stay at home more often.

    If I would get paid to stay home, I would. Until that happens I’m coming in unless I’m dying.

    I hear you!
    I’m a casual, but only because I choose to stay that way and there’s more freedom. Those people on salaries who get sick days and paid holidays can be real DRIPS!!!!

  Please send one to my kid’s school! Also add that parents who work DO stay home to nurse their children back to health, thus losing money. What I get pissed about are these skanks who send their children to school, sick, and not care for them, when their loser ass is sitting home all day, and can AFFORD to keep their children home. It simply inconveniences them.

  Heather thats a little offensive. I stay at home and care for my children I don’t consider myself a loser, and I don’t have a choice in the matter - I cannot afford childcare. £600 per month times 2

  Ha. I would certainly hope that someone would stay home if they were feeling “lousey.”

  This notice is fantastic! I’d like to add a note for smokers who complain about having a “flu I just can’t shake off” - stop smoking! Duh.

  I am not in the if-sick-stay-home camp. What about those without many days off? I’m going to give up my trip to the Grand Canyon just to keep you sanitary? I would say those healthy people should wash their hands, avoid rubbing their eyes, and take their vitamins.

  I love the curse of going to work sick, people seem to flee like they were going to be struck dead with bubonic plague. I get a lot more work done.

  You’re kidding right?

  Kids go to school and daycare and get sick on average 2 times a month! When they are healthy, their primary caregiver now has it.

  If I took off work twice a month to nurse each and every sniffle and then extended to cover my sniffles- I would be fired!

  If a co-worker doesn’t want to get sick, they can stay away from my desk.
