The foot five is a good way to celebrate with teammates during the winter months, but sometimes it’s just not enough.
Are you tired of touching things at work this cold and flu season because other people may have already touched them? Do you cringe at the thought of interacting with coworkers for fear of contracting a horrible ailment that will leave you incapacitated for days on end? Do you want to eradicate cold and flu season once and for all?
If the answer is yes to any of those questions, the good news is that there’s hope. And it’s a little something I like to call the Flu Eradication Device, or FED.
How To
Anybody can build a FED. It’s really that easy. I fashioned one out of a Ziploc freezer bag and a hair scrunchy I stole out of my daughter’s room. Simply place your hand into the bag and use your other hand to vacuum seal it off with the hair scrunchy. This will provide you with the protection you need to keep your hand in and the germs out.
So long cold and flu season.
Practical Applications
Once you’ve installed the FED on your hands, I think you’ll find that you can do everything that you could already do at work. The only difference is, now you’re not putting germs on your hands. Plus, you’ve done your part to eradicate cold and flu season, for good. Let’s take a look:
Touching ThingsThe first thing you should notice when you put on your FED is that opening doors is a breeze. As is touching elevator buttons, typing on your keyboard and swiping your ID card. The FED makes all of these actions as stress free as humanly possible, and will give you the confidence you need to go about your business without worry.
You will no longer have to live in fear of getting germs on your hands at work, because the germs get on the FED and not your hands. And clean-up couldn’t be easier.
Handshakes: Same thing goes for physical contact with another human being. Now you can shake anybody’s hand without wondering how many times they’ve coughed and sneezed before you met with them that day. For best results, make sure you’re both wearing an FED, and double eradicate the cold and flu from your workspace this season.
Highfiving: Probably my favorite practical application for the FED, and the impetus for this post, is high-fiving. You shouldn’t have to be afraid that you’re going to get sick just because you high-fived a coworker after passing an important business milestone or deciding on where you want to go to lunch that day. I simply refuse to live in a world where I can only high-five, safely, from the months of May to September. How bout you?
