I'm sick as a dog, I can barely breathe through my nose...should I stay at work and tough it out?

[ghostsofgiants]

Or should I go home and be a common cold girly man?

I'd rather not go home, because it is a few hours of pay that I could always put to good use. At the same time, my nose is running like it's on an episode of COPS.

1. The man needs you!

Don't you care about the man's needs? He cares about yours!

[ghostsofgiants]

5. If the man cared about my needs, my schedule would have been changed to part time two weeks ago.

2. "my nose is running like it's on an episode of COPS"

:spray: :rofl:

[ghostsofgiants]

3. I like to use creative similes when describing my runny noses.

Previous examples include "running like a gazelle at African Lion Safari" and "running like it just stole its neighbour's lawn gnome."

7. the COPS one i'm going to have to steal

:P

[ghostsofgiants]

10. Haha, yeah, it's probably my favourite to date.

[Ava]

12. i'll credit you.. don't worry

"where'd you hear that one?"
"some dude on a message board" :P

[ghostsofgiants]

13. That's all I ask.

4. I am not answering your question till you answer mine

go home, get some rest

[ghostsofgiants]

8. Haha, fair enough.

Mind you, I expect her answer to be "Is she hot?" :P

[La Lioness Priyanka]

11. well just tell her i am.

:P

[ghostsofgiants]

14. Word.

I doubt she'll mind, haha.

[foxfeet]

6. Go home like the CONTAGIOUS girly-man you are.

And if you have a good Chinese restaurant on the way, pick up a quart of hot and sour soup.

[ghostsofgiants]

9. Haha, yeah, good call on the contagious part.

I'm more of a chicken soup person though. :P

[qwertyMike]

15. Go home

Grey Goose.

You will feel better, but you wont feel better.

If you get my drift

[ghostsofgiants]

16. In other words, i'll stillbe sick, but I won't be in a setting that makes me hate everything?

:P

[CaliforniaPeggy]

17. My dear primate1!

For crying out loud, GO HOME!

For your own sake...

And to keep the rest of the people in your office from catching your cold!

Feel better, OK?

Sorry you're sick...

:hug:

[Symarip]

18. I'm no doctor

But I will tell you this. When I'm sick and I need to get through the work day, I take a few drops of oil of oregano and two regular sudafed (the stuff you have to buy at the pharmacy. Avoid the stuff that says 'pe' on it.).

Y'know, for what it's worth.
