It's finally the season of The Germ™, and that means office spaces are going to be riddled with sneezing, coughing, hacking, yacking—you name it. No sound is exempt from the season of sicknesses, and even more so when you have colleagues with a bunch of allergies and only five feet of distance in their respective cubicles.
It's one thing to request a bit more space between a coughing colleague and yourself, but it's another to break out the can of Lysol you keep at your desk and go beast mode, generously spraying harsh chemicals on a coworker.
Now, most workplaces don't think to add a small clause in the employee handbook that states you cannot spray cleaning chemicals on others during working hours. Even still, you'd think this would be common knowledge and a basic instinct. The colleague in the story below clearly has no moral qualms with spraying Lysol on an employee who is not sick, but has allergies. Which, if you didn't know, are not contagious. The chemicals actually make them, and probably others in the office choke up a lung even more than before. Scroll to read.
