This is mostly just a rant
I work in a factory and I used to never get sick until a couple months ago when everyone caught super covid.
Everyone just comes to work sick because we’ve all used up our sick and vacation time being ill. Last month me and a couple people caught RSV and somebodys kid had to be hospitalized.
There is always 10+ people coughing, snorting, drinking tea, and chugging dayquil in a given day. People leave their snot rags laying around and never wash their hands after blowing their nose.
I don’t go anywhere but work, mostly i only get a few days break of feeling horrible before i get sick again.
I always try to wash my hands and avoid touching my face, wear a mask, wipe stuff down after i touch it, but it’s useless because nobody else cares for hygiene.
I feel like the average person doesn’t understand how illness spreads because they always say stuff like “it’s so chilly in here i’m gonna catch a cold” or they blame their severe sickness on a “sinus infection”.
Rant over, thanks for listening.
