1958 F.W.D. Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 (edited) Holy crap....The kids all had that "36 hour" flu bug last week that's been going around. Liquids of all viscosities coming out of body orifices, fever, chills, body aches & pains.....Kinda thought that me and SWMBO dodged it. Until 0345 Sunday morning when I woke up all of a sudden out of the blue and *RAN* to the bathroom. Spent most of the day yesterday on the pot. Stomach felt like someone was repeatedly punching me over and over again, and the body aches and pains were awful. And I couldn't sleep at all, just little cat naps here and there on the couch. I was still feeling like crud last night so I texted my boss and told hin "tomorrow ain't happening" which I think is the first time in 3 or 4 years that I have sicked out. He came back and said that I will be the 5th or 6th guy in the last 2 weeks hit by this including himself and said to "STAY THE HELL HOME!" So here I sit on the couch, SWMBO just went to bed as she worked last night, Large/Medium/Small all went to school and it's just me and Extra Small hanging out. Kicked the fever because I woke up all sweaty, still have to run for the pot once in a while but am feeling much better. This sucks, I wouldn't wish this on anyone.

Hobert62 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I had the flu about 2 years ago and it sucks. That was the only time I called off sick since I graduated in 98. Good luck.

Freightrain Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I dodged most of those bullets. Had the coughing crap the first week of January, missed on the flu stuff. Lucky me.

Vladislav Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Doesn't sound nice. Hope the pot room functions right. Good luck on a speedy and full recovery. 1 Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/48569-sicked-out-of-work-today/#findComment-360301 Share on other sites More sharing options...

other dog Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 I had that 36 hour flu last April- except it lasted a week and a half. I did stop smoking then though, haven't smoked since. On the down side, I have gained about 250 pounds since then. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.
