Coworker just announced she has a cold and when pressed by another coworker, jokingly said “Oh, I guess I’m breaking the rules.”
It’s gross. Don’t do it. |

Well I don't have any telework and it's nonstop coughing over here. I'm seriously worried sitting at my desk. We were just sick for 2 weeks and I don't want to get sick again. |

| I hope she is courteous enough to wear a mask. If so, nbd. Stay away and wash your hands a lot and you probably won't get it. |

| If my husband gets it at work, I’m sending him right back to share it with you all. It’s really crummy as just a cold lasts weeks for me with multiple steroids and antibiotics. He gets no pto. No work, no pay. |

This is a pretty serious offense, I would consider reporting it to the police. Maybe even the FBI. |

a cold or covid, no way to tell at this point. many people get pneumonia from every other cold, so it can be serious. but until we see unlimited telework and/or sick leave, people will come to the office to not burn it except when they really can't work. |

You should be masking if you are concerned. |
