Just stay in the hotel. Work as you can, but don’t get on a plane with the flu.

With the Flu, similar to Covid, people just worked from the hotel if they got sick mid trip. Please don’t infect everyone on your team or on the plane. And where a mask when you do travel.

Work/stay in hotel. Recovery is much nicer with room service lol

I used to work from the hotel, and stick with the same flight back, to not incur additional flight change fees/charges. You may recover very soon, and be able to head back into the office as well.

Do whatever makes YOU feel better. Your health is priority. I have Covid (again ugh) and this time I’ve been so tired I can’t work the last 2 days. might feel good to rest in a hotel bed or you might prefer to be home. Just don’t go into client site sick or feel like you have to work.

Do not be an ass and go into any office and get everyone else sick.

First day of 30mg vyvanse today. Had a rush of energy and hyperfocus (too much so) about 2-4 hours in, but had a complete crash 5hrs after taking the pill (just a wave of fatigue, felt very good after a quick 15min nap actually) and not sure if it had any effect after. Is this normal? Should I stick it out for a few days or is this a big sign that I’m not on the right meds/dose? Nervous to keep trialling this during the workday since a midday crash is not ideal. Appreciate any advice!
