Hacking & Coughing

Admin Gal appreciates a firm work ethic.  In fact, she is a firm believer that very few things should prevent one from getting the job done.  

However...

Please do not come to the office hacking and coughing, spreading your germs under the guise of being a good little soldier.  Martyr doesn't look good on anyone.

Please do everyone a favor and follow these simple suggestions:

1. If you are feeling under the weather, stay home, sleep, give your body a fighting chance to get over whatever it is that has assaulted you.
2. Don't hack and wheeze your way around the office.  The office environment is worse than kindergarten when it comes to illnesses.  Give your co-workers a break. Don't bring it to the office.
3. Work from home if you aren't feeling well.  Technology is marvelous, use it.
4. Go to the Doctor if it doesn't go away.  

Help keep the work environment healthy.

Thank you!

When Under the Weather

Dear Team,

When Admin Gal is under the weather, certain protocols should be observed.

1. Inquiries of her health and well being is always appreciated.
2. Flowers are always looked upon fondly.
3. Good wishes for return to health are also considered appropriate.

Admin Gal is aware that her presence and skills are missed when she is not at her post.  She can not control the vagrancies of the current viruses or bacteria that are floating around the world.

What is not appreciated are phone calls or emails demanding she carry her germ ridden self into the office to take care of projects that are only important in the mind of the person assigning priority.  Or who do not want the task themselves (which is often the case).

The projects were present the previous day and will survive until Admin Gal is back in the office healthy and whole.  OR she can spread her contagion about the impolite person's office.

Your choice.

Admin Gal
