    emet buddies!



    At work at the moment, we're having a re-fit, well not yet but
    currently undergoing the beginning parts i.e. flooring, electricals
    etc. The head builder who has been working in our shop for several
    weeks now. He came into today and said to my boss 'I couldnt make
    yesterday i think i had some sort of virus, i had a bad stomach!' i
    totally freaked, and another work colleague looked at me knowing what
    im like! I didnt spend much time around him at all. Do u think im safe?
    i tried not to touch door handles, buttons etc i pulled my work shirt
    sleeve up! just had it on my mind all day and its bothering me so
    needed to offload and ask for all ur help!

    Yup, if any builder said they couldn't come to do a job for me because they 'were sick' I would straight away think they were having me on, but perhaps that is just my biased opinion on the bad builders I have had doing work on my house for the past few years.

    That is a totally familiar situation. I no u will think i am crazy but i work with children!and they getill a lot but i was always determined that this would not get in the way of my ambitions. my point is thati often hear of things going round and i freak out like mad but i rarely get more than a cold! so i dont think u have anything at all to worry about.xx Edited by: laura-cate :d
