Hard to work at a call center when
 
Yup you guessed it - when I can't talk! :( I woke up Sunday with a scratchy throat, as the day went along it got worse.

Woke up Monday to a really bad scratchy throat but went to work anyway. After 3 hours of dealing with trying to talk I finally got a sale but ended up having the manager finish the call because I couldn't stop coughing. Needless to say he sent me home.

Tuesday, could only talk in a whisper. Didn't go to work since I couldn't do my job. But, did manage to make it to first day of classes.

Wednesday, went to doctors. Another sinus infection plus tonsilitis. Wrote me a note to be out of work the rest of the week. Plus another round of antibiotics. :( I am so sick of being sick!! :(

Today and feeling a little better. Got up to go in for class - first class cancelled (found out when I got that - didn't that tick me off!) And wrote a note to second class that I wasn't going to be there.

My voice is back a little as long as I don't talk to much! I think DBF is enjoying the quiet but sick of sleeping on the couch for he doesn't want to catch what I have.

I hear you on the sick of being sick!

:hug:Yeahbut! Sorry you are sick again. Stress? Ya think?!? You need some relief from worrying about not working. Hopefully you'll get back on your feet and get ahead. Hope the sinus infection clears up soon and you're back to your ol' bouncy self again!

:hug: Char, you just can't seem to get a break can you? I hope this is a short lived illness and you can go back to work soon. It sounded like you were really enjoying the job and the people there. But, like you said, you can't do telephone work if you can't talk! :rolleyes:

I hope you'll feel better soon lil' Lambchop. :hug: I second AMN's suggestion about gargling with saltwater. :hug:

Char .. you may have to keep 'clorox' wipes with you everywhere you go - to wipe away germs ... we can't see our immune system, nor know what sets off just enough that makes us sick ... it's like we have to keep our defenses up all the time ... vitamins vitamins ...

when I was dx'd ... I was so mad because for the 2 months prior, I had gotten bronchitis because people come to work sick .. and makes me mad! and then I got sick and missed work .. and then the downward spin started ... and I was taking vitamins then too ...

we have to watch anyone around us - sniffly, snotting ... and veer into the other direction!! FAST ...

hope you feel better ... hugs to you!!
