I need a quick fix..?!

Question: I need a quick fix...?

So, I start work at 5pm but i've got a cold and really sore throat.
I work with food so don't really think I should go but I have no choice because it is a fairly new job and i'm on a trial period.
How can I make myself a bit better in the space of 5hours.?

I have taken cold and flu capsules and sucked on tunes but my nose is dripping like a tap lol.
Any advice will be appreciatedHealth Question & Answer

Answers:

Because you are in your trial period, all the more reason that you shouldn't be working. Any boss in her mind would send you home if you are sick and expected to touch food. You could make all the other employees sick too.

Call your boss or shift supervisor and tell her/him that you are not feeling well. Ask her/him if you should come in. Be very willing to. Express your concern that you are not feeling well.

If you give your employer enough time to find a replacement they would be appreciative. So I would do it right away for a 5pm job tonight. Good luck!Health Question & Answer

Part of working in the adult world is making adult decisions. Anyone in the food industry should realize the risks they extend to the public and coworkers. Stay home!Health Question & Answer

Not sure it will help the cold symptoms but I find a nice hot bath makes you feel much better in yourself.
