Sorry @callingcolleen1 and hope you feel better soon. You know you are allowed to call in sick but it is not in your nature. For some reason you just will not do it and you really should cuz you are ill. I would think they would not want you near the food being possibly contagious.

Stupid freezer count made me even sicker. Freezer is very cold in middle of night. Like below minus 25 or 30 cause that way food stays freezer. Took today off to recover. Was horrible sick with bad fever on Tuesday... Getting better slowly. Never going to count freezer again when I feel cold coming on.

Hope you get better soon and don't go to work if you are feeling sick. You will hurt your body in the long run if you do and then they won't have you anymore at all cuz your lungs will be damaged.

Don't play with pneumonia. Stay home get well, the business will not fail without you for a few days. It is one thing that takes out a lot of older people. (not saying you are old!)

I am much better feeling right now, but still very weak. Drank tons of fluid last few days, was just so thirsty. Now I. was reading that That is a classic symptom... The body just required tons of fluid. Maybe to flush out the bad green slime. I will try to make it to work tomorrow. Poor bakery needa me.

That yuck is infection, green slime yuck. Your body is trying to remove it.

STAY HOME!

I had walking pneumonia, years ago, trying to keep going to work, until almost collapsing, the doctor said I was lucky I came in to see him, ow I could have ended up in ICU. It is a bad thing to have. Take care of yourself. I was off work for a week recovering. He said if I had come in sooner it would have been cured faster.

Don't listen to Mitch, if you can't take time for illness, you can't take time for vacation either! Besides if they struggle to do without you,they'll appreciate you more when you return, and they might actually pay attention when you show them how to cover your job.
