defense (vitamin c + zinc)

if you've had to use sick days because you've actually been sick then you're seriously missing out, my friends. see, the trick is to stay healthy and use sick days to just, um, not go in. and this combination of zinc and fortifying vitamins can help keep you healthy as a horse. so drink up. but remember, don't everdo it on the coughing and sniffling (big rookie mistake). just stick with the ever elusive "24-hour bug." the symptoms are vague and people will actuall yencourage you to stay home.

vitamins + water = all you need

I've been meaning to post this forever. I thought it was kind of funny - the stuff written on the side of the vitamin water I bought the other day.

But I'm reminded of a conversation I've had recently with a friend. In his case, an Apple Genius Bar employee was encouraging him to violate the Terms of Service for certain software. In my case, the little voice on the side of my bottle is encouraging drinkers to stay healthy (by drinking the vitamin water, of course!) and "use sick days to just, um, not go in."

* Terms of Service
* Guidelines for Sick Days

** "Yeah, but who honestly follows that?" asks the Genius Bar employee.
** "Umm, I do," replies my friend.

Anyone else have a story along these lines?
