HOSTILE WORK ENVIRONMENT

Does politically correct institutional stupidity constitute a hostile work environment?

During the nine years I’ve worked there, my company never had a word to say during the annual flu season (beyond facilitating flu shots).

Now with the new administration – and the swine flu panic – we've had “emergency preparations” to work at home in case the building is closed, and now the obligatory “cover when you cough” and ”wash your hands while singing 'Happy Birthday’” signs have been posted in every restroom.

Shouldn’t that be considered a “hostile work environment” for anyone with even an ounce of usable brain tissue?
