At this time last year I was on a plane almost every week. Being exposed to all the people who had who knows what kind of crud, yet some how I mananged to dodge the flu bullet. This year I am on a new form of involuntary quarantine. Unemployment.
The good news is you can't get swine flu from a phone interview which I have been doing a lot of lately. I just hope that I don't develop some kind of paranoia about the flu that turn into Monk where I have to sanitize everything.
The bad news is that I am with my kids more so if they get exposed my odds of staying healthy go down. The same is true for my new unemployed friends and that means we will get to be the nurse for our kids, something the working world does little to prepare us for.
I am taking additional precautions in that I am working out regularly so I stay fit and at my peak ability to fight off any nasty stuff that comes my way. Another benefit of not working. My heart goes out to those who have the flu or are caring for someone who has it. My guess is they wouldn't trade positions with me so I will just enjoy my seclusion.
