Flu Shot

Shortly after I pulled up my sleeve I was injected with an infectious desease. Seems like a lot to go through to skip 15 minutes of work. But what can I say, I look for almost any excuse to get away from the desk. I don't think that I have ever gotten a flu shot before. I have never seen too much of a need. I am a health male in my physical prime and I probably not have too much of a problem handling it. The biggest pain of the shot is the pain that is still in my arm two days later. I usually an pretty good at taking these shots but this one stayed sore for some reason. After the fact I almost felt a little guilty taking the shot because seemingly every year there is a shortage after the flu season really gets going. So I probably took a shot away from some little kid or old woman to whom the flu could be fatal. Between this and my sore arm I think that I will forego the flu shot next year.
