GET LOTS OF REST TODAY USE TYLENOL OR MOTRIN FOR FEVER AND PAIN. DRINK PLENTY OF FLUIDS. TOMORROW TAKE SHOWER PUT ON MAKE UP TRY AND DRESS NICE. IF YOU HAVE A HIGH FEVER I THINK YOU SHOULD BE HONEST WITH YOUR BOSS. YOU DON'T WANT TO MAKE YOUR NEW CO-WORKERS SICK. THE FLU HAS TO RUN ITS COURSE.
I HOPE YOU FEEL BETTER SOON!~!!!!

Sorry, but there just isn't a quick cure for the flu.
Keep hydrated, and if you are running a fever, do NOT wrap up in a blanket. That keeps it contained. Take Tylenol and Motrin for your fever and aches.
You can show up for work, but if you really have the flu, it'll be obvious to everyone that you shouldn't be there.

oh no...sorry about that...but the best thing to do today, is to take aspirin if you are running a fever, and of course, drink lots of fluids and stay in bed...it is probably better to show up, than to go in too sick, and at least tell the new boss you are sick but didn't want to risk losing your job...and ask if you can go home, if you still feel bad...drink gatoraide, to get your electrolites going, and chicken broth...and good luck..there isn't really much more you can do but let it run it's course

Hi Sweetie,
This works for some people, but not for everyone... You need to get some AIRBORNE, this is supposed to fight off the cold, which you will feel better real soon.
Another thing, get some ZICAM-- this comes with pills that disslove, nose/throat spray. I understand taking Zicam will cut the time you have your cold.
Good Luck
Peanut
