Long story short, a man in my office has a case of weeping conjunctivitis. He's touching his eyes and then touching everything in sight. He left his eye goop hankie on the printer. It is so fucked that I can't believe my eyes (no pun intended). His employees are begging him to go home but he's not leaving. I plan on not going in tomorrow.

I know this seems nuts, because who would do this, right? I wish I were trolling or BSing, but I'm not.

I think it is one thing to not know how contagious you are or basically to just think that your need to be in the office is so great that it trumps other people's right not to get sick. But to walk around touching things and not keeping the germ-rag off of the fucking printer, homeslice? I have three little kids, and if I get pinkeye because I touched the computer then rubbed my eye before I knew that there was eye slime on the printer, they'll probably get it to. And then, because I'm not a dick who will go to work contagious or send a contagious kid to school, I'm gonna have to take off time from work myself. All because this asshole what - didn't want to use up his vacation?  Thought he had to be there and couldn't bother to even try NOT to touch shit?

I'm pissed. [/quote]
