so..im very selfish it appears.

i just started a new job and am a) not permitted to take any sick leave and b)fired if i even slightly waver when it comes to bounce, cheer, energy and concentration.

this would all be well and good except that my boyfriend caught a cold two days ago, one of the horrible ones where you wake up unable to breathe etce tc etc. and due to random circumstances i haven't seen him since he caught it. the plan was tonight id go look after him, but suddenly i find myself thinking 'if i just don't go over there i wont get sick. ' because i really REALLY need the money at work right now

and even just the lack of sleep part would be detrimental..

not going over there would be a selfish option, so instead im wondering are there any ways to prevent this?

wear a surgical mask?

seriously, don't touch him, wash your hands after leaving his place and touching anything that he touched, double your multivitamins for a few days, and spray a lot of lysol everywhere.

lol. none of those sound appealing. sigh.

the dumb thing is, i never get sick, so i could take an illness or to, its just the work thing :/

i like the vitamin idea though . i know health is my weird obsession, and its really not fair to put it on other people.

lol

If it just started, run out and get some Airborne (or Walmart's knock off version that's much less expensive). That plus Zicam are my cold-kicker standbys.
