Show some assertiveness and call in sick. What isn't to understand about you're not legal to fly if you can't pass the medical that day? You put you, your fellow crewmembers, and your pax at unneeded risk. And if your company doesn't understand that it's not safe for you to be flying when you're "dizzy as hell", then it's time to find a new company! There's plenty of places hiring right now with good work rules.
First of all I wear my own headset as to not "contaminate" the set on board. Second I always keep a huge stock of antibacterial wipes that I would use to wipe down as many things as I touched before leaving. Third if you've never worked at MAG then please keep your holier than thou comments to yourself. Its not so cut and dry. Oh and fourth I did move on to a better company.
