That is BS. I got the flu as well and people don't believe me since its summer.
Yeah op if those are your only symptoms I don't think that's the flu but I could be wrong
Come to work anyway so you can sneeze on his bitch face. Let him have it. :^)
Flu in the summer, sounds a little far fetched.
Sounds like a bad cold
Definitely. I remember throwing up and aching everywhere when I had the flu. I don't think I sneezed once...
although you can get the flu, yours just sounds like a cold.
Agreed. If it was flu, you wouldn't get out of bed for £1000; if you we're able to go into work it's definitely a cold. Have paracetamol for your fever and ride it out, OP. Good luck with your boss.
Flu comes in different levels too. I've worked for days with something that turned out to be a flu. I then worked through the subsequent chest infection too.
Shortness of breath is usually in indicator of something more serious than a cold. Though it might still not be flu, it's probably at least a respiratory infection. Still not something you want to be working with.
Some flu strains have symptoms of a cold, just more severe
I was thinking this too. A flu is usually accompanied by a fever and body aches. I'm not saying op shouldn't stay home because of his really bad cold. I'm just saying it doesn't sound like the flu...yet. Colds can easily change to flu's and chest/sinus infections and other nasty stuff pretty quickly, and the fact that op is having shortness of breath doesn't sound good. Go to your doc op, you may be getting a chest infection or pneumonia or something if you're having trouble breathing.
#25 is referring to Tylenol for the rest of us Yankees
Time to go get a medical certificate I think.

Come into work and give him the flu, that'll show him
