[quote=Anonymous]OP here--thanks for the helpful replies.  Not sure I can use rubber gloves to wash dishes at work without my colleagues thinking I am crazy, but I can at home.  Cold water hand washing also sounds like an easy and logical fix.

And actually, yes, I can catch viruses or bacteria from my own hands--though obviously I cannot infect myself with something I already have.  But I can use the sign-in pen at my son's preschool in the morning which may have been touched by someone infected with something else (no, wait, this is preschool, so it for sure has been touched by someone infected with a cold, strep, something fun) and then I get to work.  If I don't wash my hands when I get to the office, if I eat anything with my hands during the day (say, my lunchtime sandwich), I will then get that fun germ.  If I don't wash my hands until I am ready to eat, I will have already put my previously preschool-infected hands all over my computer mouse, pen, etc., making the handwashing of an hour later irrelevant.  No?[/quote]
