"Does anyone have a tissue?"

[Trynasneeze]

One of the girls at work, early 20s, mid brown hair - shoulder length, has a cold. She's not the only one right now but she's the subject of this obs. 

She was sniffling all day right from the get go so I was keeping one eye open in case there were any obs. 

She has a regular sniffle all day long, her nose is a bit red, she sounds kinda stuffy and would wipe her nose a little on the back of her hand every so often. 

About 11.30 though I looked up to see her put both hands over her nose and mouth and then 

"HUHCHOO!! HUHCHOO!!" She sneezed. Then a big wet sniff. Then "HUHCHOO!!" once more. 

A couple people looked up and said bless you. 

She then sniffled again, sighed and she looks up and says 

"Does anyone have a tissue?"

with one hand still over her nose. 

 

Sometimes there are perks to cold and flu season 😂

I think I would melt if I saw that, awesome OBS. However, there's one important answer we need: Did anyone give her some tissues?

Haha yes. Luckily for her several people have colds right now (to be honest she probably caught it from one of them) and one of them gave her a couple of tissues from his pocket packet. 

She didn't really blow but sniffled wetly while using the tissues to give her nose what looked like a mix between a wipe and a massage. 

 

She was back in this morning, still sounding very sniffly and stuffed up. I definitely saw her stifle a few sneezes, she looked pretty sick. She still didn't have any tissues of her own and kept disappearing to the bathroom to blow her nose a few times - which I overheard her announce to the girl beside her at least twice. 

She disappeared around lunchtime though, apparently she'd asked if she could head home as she was feeling pretty rough.

I would have readily given her Kleenex Tiisues

I too have a Cold right now and always have Tissues/Hankies around me.
