[quote=Anonymous]I'm not usually one of those snarky posters, but I honestly can't even believe that this is an issue. It's a nasty cold and flu season. She's human - she got strep (and only stayed home 1 day!). And she got a cold (which she was willing to work through but you asked her not to). If this were like 7 times in the last 6 months, then I'd start to scratch my head about what to do. But this seems potentially reasonable and not likely a sign of vast illnesses to come. How would you want to be treated at work if you needed one absence in the first 3 weeks of work because of strep? Treat her the way you'd want to be treated. "How are you feeling? I hope you get better soon!" (on a day you had a cold, you'd probably go in, just like she was willing to - you, the employer, asked her to stay home). [/quote]
