My colleague had been in Japan attending a conference. He was not due back at work until next week so I was surprised when he dropped by my office on Thursday.
He had caught a bad cold and decided to come back early. I told him he should be at home resting instead of coughing and spluttering in my office.
He tried to reassure me, in between coughing fits, that he was at the tail end of his cold and was no longer contagious (why do sick people always try to tell others that they are not sick?).
This morning I woke up to a runny nose and a sore throat. Grrr.
