Leaving the
restroom earlier today I passed by the Men’s room and heard Mr. Coughy in there
and it sounded AWFUL! So bad I actually said out loud, “Oh my God”. So, as you
do, I sent him an email.
Short,
simple and sweet, I sent, “Hey MR. COUCHY, are you feeling ok? I've noticed you've been coughing a lot…” To which he replied with this, “TB. Kidding. I think my throat is just dry...it
seems kind of humid in here...or is that just me? At my age, it's probably just
me!!!
Thanks for asking...that's sweet of you!” I
reply to him saying it sounds serious so I was just checking and he says, “Knowing
me, it is probably just psychosomatic! If you happen to walk past my
office and I'm slumped over my desk or sprawled out on the floor...it's just me
being a drama queen. Pay no attention...it will just encourage me.”
It’s not humid in here and if you’re throat
is dry get some f’ing water! It’s FREE and in the kitchen steps away from you. And you’re saying that
it's all probably mental? It’s hard to “pay
no attention” PLEASE.STOP. I wouldn't have said anything at all,
but it’s just every few seconds (literally) he’s coughing LOUD coughs. It really
sounds like it could be something serious.
