Workplace Illness - Likely Triggering, What Do I Do?
Hello, I posted last week about a coworker of mine becoming ill and vomiting in front of me at work. Now, I've had it happen again, although I did not witness any vomiting nor do I know if she actually vomited at work. She did end up going home, which is very uncommon where I work. I also know of another coworker who was likely experiencing the same bug, though I do not have any more details there. I work in a fast-casual restaurant as a server or in the drive through, I am working 30-40 hours every week so I have a high level of contact with everyone. My dumb ass brought in candy today, and I am hoping this does not lead to more spreading. What can I do to try to stay safe? Besides all the anxiety I have surrounding the issue, it is also somewhat difficult to take time off, and I would feel bad if I ended up becoming ill and leaving us shortstaffed. My gut reaction is to just stop showing up, as I my last day working there is in a bit over two weeks anyways, but I know this is not a real solution. Any advice welcomed!
