I've seen French colleagues walk out of a toilet cubicle after having a dump and then shake other's hands and leave the toilets without washing their hands
The worst is when they see you watching them sneeze and afterwards they offer their hand to greet you!:aargh4:
I've made it my habit to wash my hands after the morning greeting rounds!
Hmmm... yes, thats why I am so fanatical about washing my hands. The illness stops at me and goes no further, or I hope.
But then again, it depends how much the individual cares. Unfortuately a lot don't.
I would recommend washing your hands after using a shared computer (Some keyboads at Chichester College were that old and grubby, I felt like throwing up!), washing your hands after touching a door handle in a shared area such as a college, also to open the door handle away from the most common bit after visiting the loo. I say this, because I dread to think how many bugs are in the centre of the door handle!
Oh, wash before eating food. Mind you, thankfully, I don't really need to wash my paws on my equipment as I make sure it is as clean as possible, but use my fathers and err, yeah, I dread to think how many bugs are on the mouse and keyboard after he sneezes! :S
