When I was trying to get back to work my general manager told me " I've always found that the best way to feel normal again is to just get back to work". She sits at a desk. I drive a 13 ton bus full of human beings around the county. If she not feeling 100% and maybe a bit drowsy, nobody dies from it.
Also, while I was off the office staff sent a get well card. Our safety manager signed it "Safety first but health is important, too". Had to laugh at that one, it was so dumb.
