🤢 are they sick or it’s a habit?

If sick - 100% can make a comment about not wanting to get sick and do they need any medicine for nose.
If habit - I personally wear headphones as I’m not super confrontational

I had a coworker who did this. At first, it annoyed me. Then I found out she had allergies and some kind of sinus issue. She had regular appts with doctors, but I guess it didn't help because she snorted a lot. So if it's a medical thing they can't help, just put your headphones on. Otherwise, keep extra tissues handy.
