For me, I really think what turned me into a germophobe, is that I've sang in a band, for sooo long now, that I'm so terrified of being sick, especially if it's a two night weekend. There's nothing worse than trying to get through 4 hours of singing, while sick. If it's two nights in a row, the 2nd night is truly a nightmare. So I know, that this is what trained me to avoid sick people, and shaking hands, and ink pens, yada, yada, yada..... When we have a week or two off, I even find myself thinking, "if there's a time to get sick, this is it!"

Yep, I do that too! Not the singing in a band part though I also wear a pair of work gloves while filling the car with petrol. Partly to avoid getting petrol on my hands, and partly to avoid whatever crud the last person left on the pump handle
