Achoo! Blahhhhhhh!

The flu has been going around the teachers at YBM. Unfortunately, our management is not smart enough to give us sick days. If we are sick, they deduct pay from our salary. Therefore, everyone who is sick still comes to work to share their symptoms. What started as one person with the flu has affected the entire office.

The flu hit me on Monday. I missed my first class but I was too hard-headed to miss more. So I went to class, dizzy, light-headed, with a fever and a stomachache. Part of me hopes the flu hits the management or at least the students complain about their near-dead teachers pathetically attempting to teach as they curl up in a ball under the desk. Would it be so much to ask for a few sick days?
