The Office Stomach Bug...

Don't you just love it when you work in an office where your co-workers start coming down with a stomach virus? So far, 3 people have either gone home, or been running into the bathroom to kiss the porcelain god, yacking up lunch.

Anyone know if the stomach virus is airborne ? I always thought it only traveled by touch, you know, if you touch a doorknob or lightswitch that an infected person touched, and then eat something without washing your hands. Am I right on that? I hope so.

I've always been a germaphobe -- so needless to say I've been using those personal hand sanitizers like crazy. I'd also like it if more people who are sick GO THE HELL HOME AND DON'T RISK INFECTING ANYONE ELSE. I mean why try to be a hero?

Anybody else with me on this?
