It's that time of year again when we're all advised to get the flu jab. Apparently there's a nasty version coming from Australia.
I never bothered in the past but this year, I'm thinking I might..
Will ya? Won't ya? Or will you rely on a half bottle of whiskey after each shift to kill all the germs :2cheers

a couple of years ago I got a really bad dose.
I was out of action for a week.
I had a dreadful chesty tickley cough that would'nt go away.
My sides were killing me from all the coughing and I was dreading it when I had to sneeze.
I crawled out of bed and limped to dunnes stores and got this cough medicine that was specific to phlegm and drank the whole yoke.
A couple hours later I coughed and all the shit down my pipe came up in one go in my mouth.
It was like a big green golf ball in my mouth.
Spat it out down the toilet.
Terrific it was.
-
I'm guessing you're a 'yes' then?
-
big time.
some little bender sneezed in my direction and thats how I got it.
-
I was actually thinking about getting it myself, we are open to every cunt coughing and sneezing all over our work space.
Maybe the nta should pay for it.

Flu doesn't normally specify where it's headed. Try the HPV vaccine if yer worried.

You got off light. Had a dose last month myself, 1000 times worse than your little cough, lucky to get out with my life.

I only started getting man flu after driving the taxi.Despite years of bicycles and motorbikes in the cold and wet never bothered me.I always thought it strange that someone will send an employee home in the taxi because they're sick but never think of the driver in the confined space with them.
-
It seems that most taxis up above in Dublin are driven by African immigrants, I suppose folk just think they've survived a lot worse than influenza and, if thy don't, what of it there's plenty more where they came from. Of course, the alternatives would be to risk your own or another staff members's health or put a bus or train load of commuters at risk. No-brainer, I guess.

I know my place,just open the window and hope for the best.

Only 4 liters of Smirnoff Hal apparently it's less fattening than Bulmers.. the buffet in the hotel now means I can no longer see my feet for the first time in years.Going out to by a new ab roller..the last one got binned by the wife because I was using it to hang my clothes on.
-
Assuming you've been hanging your clothes on the floor since, she won't be so quick to discard the new clothes horse.
-
I'm getting better.The ab roller used to be hung on the back of a door so I was actually creating storage space.She didn't see the advantages.

I prefer to stick with nature rather than science Watty, some alcohol (or cannabis if your in to it)
to relax you after a shift and help you sleep will also kill most of the bugs going around.

It's all scaremongering, the flu jab is next to useless due to the rate of mutation of the virus. The flu jab is based on last years virus meaning it is totally different to this years mutated version, if anything it will make you feel worse and lower your immune system. Stay away!
You're much better off taking a Vitamin D3 supplement at 4000 iu per day and high strength vitamin C, as well as Magnesium and zinc. That's what I've done and I haven't had a bad flu in years.
-
I find the thallium great aswell....the missus doesn't though!!
-
The flu jab is nothing more than a placebo, it stops people running to the doctor every time they have a sniffle.
-
Why would anyone want to get a flu jab ? rofl
