The person who is contagious is the one responsible for not getting others sick. This is how life works. The person causing the problem is responsible.

And how do you prove that that person with the runny nose and cough infected you?

This is ridiculous. Your need to be right despite logic and reason wins. Good luck to you sir.

Whats ridiculous is you being a germ nazi in your workplace. All the virus out there in a 24 hour period your trying to convince me you know how and by whom you will be infected.

its obviously a higher chance of you being sick being in a workplace with some idiot who decides to go into work sick instead of taking a day or two off to get better.

Thank you to this thread! I took a mental health day and went shooting. Got my new deer rifle sighted in and ready to go.

At my company it's pointless not to use your sick time. I have over 800 hours accrued sick time that the company will pay out at retirement but only at 10%. I am going to make a point of using my sick time from now on.
