    Regardless of how long you've worked there, if you're ill, you're ill. Adding my voice to the chorus saying stay home and get better! Xx

    Yes, bed is the place @KajiKita.  You'll take so much longer to recover if you go in! Chloe can nurse you.  Love Humdinger xx

    I'm agreeing with everyone else you need to stay home and recover 🤗

    Wishing you a full and speedy recovery.

    Totally agree with the others. No one should be sharing germs in the workplace!
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Do get well soon.  I wish people would isolate because someone gave it to me at the end of September (before my jab was due) & I am still not right as it turned into a bad chest infection needing more antibios as the last lot didn't work.  5 days is never enough.  I am sure it was the dentists yet again.

    People aren’t allowed to or are supported in doing so. Sick pay (beyond statutory) is entirely at our GM’s discretion. Shop floor people are generally excluded unless it’s something very long term such as cancer 🤷‍♀️😢
