Is there a correct answer to this conundrum?

You’re sick… sneezing, blowing, coughing — you know the drill.  You’d like nothing better than to spend the day in bed watching day-time TV, but you’ve got important stuff to do at work.  Should you:

• Stay home, rest and get well soon?
• Go to work, be a martyr and infect everyone else?

The answer for your individual situation might depend on your boss or your company culture.  But think carefully about whether or not demonstrating your never-ending loyalty by coming in sick makes up for infecting your co-workers.

But what do you think?
