I am against people coming to work sick. I’m trying to stay healthy, and they’re hacking germs all over me.

I think there’s a name for this now, “presenteeism.” When you go to work, when you should really be home.

Please be considerate and keep your germs to yourself. Thanks!

also, I’m self-employed, so if you go to work, and make me sick, I lose a few days of income. Coming to work sick is not a victimless crime! and you are not the victim!

More businesses claim to discourage coming in sick, but I haven’t really seen this work in practice. There’s got to be a better way. It’s not good for you, and it’s not good for me.
