I ruined our office.

[Art Vandelay]

So I wasn't feeling well 2 days ago at work. I had the flu shot earlier this month, so I didn't worry about it and still went to work yesterday even though I was feeling horrible (had a project that really needed to get done). Anyways, this morning I called my assistant to tell her I will rest at home but she didn't answer. I called about 5 people in my office but nobody answers. So wondering what the heck is going on, I called another unit to check up on them. Apparently 8 out of 11 people that I had a 6-hour meeting with yesterday called in sick today :Q Damn, should I call them all individually at home to apologize or send an email?

Edit: To clarify, I would shut up and keep quiet but I told them I wasn't feeling well yesterday and left the meeting early. So I am pretty sure they know it was me.

Don't do anything about it. Enjoy the day off by resting and trying to get well again.

 

[Tremulant]

grats.

:beer:

 

[Riverhound777]

Im sure you had the best intentions but this is just a horrible attitude. Sigh, it's a shame its not more culturally normal to stay home when even a bit sick and avoid the outcome you ran into.

 

[randay]

Protect your ass, you could be layed off for this. If I were your boss, you'd be getting fired via text message right about.... now!

So basically you went to work knowing full well you were sick. There needs to be a special level of hell reserved for people like yourself.

 

[Rastus]

Most of those people have kids in school and/or daycare so any bug that's going around is going to hit anyway. Everybody at my work had it last week, including me.

 

[jimbob200521]

Eh, I'd just apologize to them when you get back to work.

 

[doze]

Not your fault to worry about everybody else, the boss should have sent you home when he found out you were sick.

 

[BooGiMaN]

you really need to stop hanging out at those budget whorehouses...look what you have done to your office!

 

[Trevelyan]

Probably shouldn't have given out all those congratulatory handshakes and french kisses.

 

[boomerang]

Next time you call in sick and they are giving you a hard time about it, just remind them of this.

You are in an enviable position my friend. Milk it for all it's worth.

 

[Mermaidman]

People like you are why Zombies would take over the world. That is, if you become a brain-eating zombie.

Thats a good attitude if you want to be first in line to be replaced.

shens.....I don't buy that 8 people had such low immune systems they became sick overnight. Generally the process works slower on different people.

 

[loup garou]

They all heard you talking about how sick you were yesterday and are faking today to get a day off, knowing they can blame it on you.

 

[FoBoT]

awesome!

you are THE man!!

:thumbsup:

One smart guy in a thread here... how rare.

 

[Canai]

Send them an email that simply says "pwned"

 

[GuitarDaddy]

Yep, they must all be faking it. There isn't any bugs I know of that incubate in less than 24hrs, there is absolutely no way they could all come down with it since yesterdays meeting

So you'd fire him for phoning in sick

And fire him for not phoning in sick
