I work in a relatively small office. My desk sits in the middle of a common area surrounded by 4 offices. Of the 4 occupants of those offices, all 4 are sick right now. 2 of them had the graces to stay home today but the other 2 didnt. So I have a lady in front of me and a lady behind me coughing and hacking and sneezing and sniffling all day.

I left early today because I just couldn't take it anymore. God only knows how many airborne germs are floating around my desk.

I'm eating tons of fruit especially oranges and drinking water... but what else can I do to avoid these sickies who seem to have no regard for my unborn child?
