POLL: who is going to get their Flu Shot?

I cannot stand shots. I'll get sick as hell before you get a needle near me. I could probably even get one free at school here, but no way.

EDIT: I've heard stories of them being pretty ineffective, and people even getting sick from the shots themselves.
 
They do them here at work, so I'll probably get one. I got one the last 2 years and I haven't gotten the flu either year. So, it doesn't seem to hurt anything.
 
yes b/c work pays for it...

then again, if i don't get it, and I get sick, I get to stay home and play videogames...

decisions, decisions....
 
I've been getting them every year since I started working at the hospital. Haven't gotten the flu yet.
They're free for me too.
 
Probably will get one. If I get sick, I still have to take care of everything and everyone at home. I don't get to lie in bed and have people wait on me. Over the years, I've usually not gotten the flu on years I got the shot, and have usually gotten the flu on years I didn't get a shot. I just wish they'd come up with a shot for the common cold virus. Damn, I'd rather have the flu than a cold. Flus burn out after a couple days, colds seem to last forever.
 
I think I will. It will be my first time. I work in retail 🙁 and its very likely I will get sick from a customer or co-worker.
 
I have known too many people who have gotten the flu even after getting the shot. I usually catch it but it rarely last more than 2 or 3 days then I am good for the rest of the year.
