I hold up my hands in defense, the accused. It didn’t start with me. I’m innocent—cough, hack, sneeze—I promise! You see, what happened was… he got sick and then came to work and then he got them sick and then I was sick the first time around, but then the next strand came and she […]
Read MoreWhen you’re reading Reman U, I’m usually typing away and reviewing your clicks, opens, and comments in real-time. But, that’s not the case today.

Read MoreEver leave work and then have to return moments later after reaching your car and discovering you have no keys? Or arrive at the gym without shorts (or sports bra)?
