My ASM has a cold-M

December 12, 2006

On Sunday, when I worked with my assistant manager, Eric, I noticed that his voice had a bit of a nasal quality to it. Of course, that got my attention, and I made sure I followed him around every chance I got. :bleh: I didn't get any sneezes, but heard him cough a few times. Well, lucky for me, he was closing again last night. When I saw him, I just knew the poor guy was sick. The underside of his nose, and just around his nostrils was totally red. When he spoke, his voice was even worse than on Sunday. But, he was still in a good mood, and was joking around with everyone all night. He never said a word about feeling bad or anything. What a good sport! :drool:

So, pretty late in the eveing, I was sitting at the desk, working on my weekly report, when i saw Eric walk back into the phone center behind me. About five minutes later I heard a deep, moist, "EH-CHUH!" I knew it was Eric. It was his sneeze, only much heavier due to his cold! :winkkiss: I couldn't say "Bless You" because he was too far away. So, I did the next best thing. I called his portable phone! :laugh:

Eric (with his stuffy, I just sneezed voice): "This is Eric."

Me: "BLESS YOU!" (giggles)

Eric: "Thanks." (laughs)

Then, about another minute later, I heard him blow his nose, poor thing! His blow sounded wet and gurgly, but it was quick and efficient.
