Not to mention that constantly coughing doesn't look very productive, Also my throat didn't feel very great..
My wife always gets laryngitis when she has a cold or the like. We're in the US, and she works in a hospital around babies. She's expected to show up for work unless it's a migraine, is puking, or has to sit on the toilet every two seconds, lol. Put on a mask, and off you go! The US still values work over well-being. There has to be a middle ground, but we haven't found it.
Hope you're better soon!
Yeah, here in The Netherlands we have a system that let people rest from work if they are sick even if it's a "small thing" like this in return bosses dont have to pay you for the first day or 2 (depending on your boss) after that they have to pay you untill you either get better or they fire you.
I feel sad for the American people though and find it cruel that the people aren't allowed to take care of there health..
