coughcoughcoughcough

my boss, the dear man, has a chronic cough. persistent, constant, never-ending. and it's driving me insane.

at first, i felt bad that he was sorta sick. a week later, i thought -- man, he really needs to drink more liquids. by the fourth week, i considered suggesting a doctor's appointment for this summer ailment. two and a half months later, it's just annoying. he sits in the cubicle right next to me... and germs fly. and soon, i think i'm gonna contact scott adams with a new-found dilbert comic idea.

would it be not-so-good to buy him a ginormous bag of cough drops or lozenges? hint hint...
