I have gone through two boxes of tissue paper for my nose, I haven't been able to sleep for 48 hours, and I feel more miserable than I remember feeling in a long time. I only work with a few people and I am afraid of making everyone in the office sick. I just help out for a few hours everyday, and if everyone in the office got sick, the whole place would come to a standstill. However, I have a two-month period to prove my worthiness to this employer for a raise and a permanent position, and I would like to not miss any days during that time. What do I do?
Also: Another employee that covers shifts for me anyhow will be there, but I don't want it to seem like I plan on having her work for me all the time.
