Force of habit. I’m on sick leave again today, which is both a boon and a bane. On one hand, I get to rest up and hopefully simultaneously do away with my persistent coughing by the end of the day and my lovely colleagues’ suspicions of my harboring the dreaded A(H1N1) virus. Swine flu schwine flu, I say. Resting also means being in front of my notebook the whole day tending to my social media accounts, listening to what is arguably the best and coolest FM station in Metro Manila and proceeding along my quest for erudition by reading yesterday’s Philippine Star and last Saturday’s Philippine Daily Inquirer. On the other hand, missing another day at work equates to a day’s worth of meal and transportation allowance slashed from my next paycheck. That’s roughly one less extra rice at Kenny Rogers and one less FX ride to work. Can you say screwed-up?
