I am a system administrator. I work on computers. I happen to do that work for a hospital organization and rarely leave my cubicle. I don't deal with patients or sick people. But yesterday, our manager told us he wants us all to get flu shots.

Anyone got any suggestions on how to get out of this? Flu shots are dangerous and accomplish absolutely nothing. Plus, it may react negatively with some of the alternative medicines I take. There is no reason for me to get one and no reason for them to tell me to get one.
 
Oh yes, 'predictive' is far too good a word to be used for such things, "Make a wild-arse guess" would be closer.

Sorry Chris, I was a minor league pitcher at one time, and if I can put one down the middle in someone's wheel house, I will

mojoputter: Well, if you pasted website quotes as well as you pitched, maybe this thread wouldn't have gotten as ridiculously off-track as it has.

I have no idea what that even means, :)

You are correct Guitarzan, after all this nonsense, I wonder what Johnnygage ended up doing..?

Maybe he couldn't take the election results.

Canada does have internet so he COULD have posted an update.

Wait - the theory was that he was already dead. Unclear if he went to Canada to avoid flu shot or as a result of the election. Would be ironic if flu killed him in Canada regardless of reason for leaving.

This is what happens when you ask a question, rile up the regular posters and then disappear!
