Update- so I did all I could to protect myself but it still resulted in me coming down with an infection which is lasting all the holiday - Covid to be exact. I was so upset when I had to ask to leave early on the last day as I felt ill. All I wanted was a week off being well. Last Christmas I was also ill due to the office being like a drs waiting room. Do you think I have the right to suggest I work from home the next time I have infections in such close proximity to me in the office? I feel so upset with how it was handled (or tbh not handled). Hi everyone, do you do or say anything when you are surrounded by coughs and colds in the office? I have colleagues that have come in today sounding really rough, with only four days left before I can get a much needed break for a week. I really don’t want to catch it 🫣😕. I was ill last Xmas with something nasty which took ages to go, I also would like to see my parents next week too. This always happens. One of them is my manager and the other their boss, and they both know my immunity isn’t great. If I I say anything I’ll probably be made to look like I’m making a fuss. When there is such potential for me to be ill, surely they should work from home or they should let me work from home? I know I sound proper moany just writing this but there is no thought here for those that are classed as vulnerable or may have vulnerable family…
