OMG... I'm sitting across from this guy who is going to cause everyone around to need immediate medical attention. I'm sitting here taking a call, and he comes and sits down in the cube across from me.


...Not only are there 50 new techs on the floor to cram into cubes to sit and listen to calls, this place is freaking hot. Seems like the air conditioning is broken or something -there is NO air movement other than the new people's hot breath down the necks of the people on the phones. I'm willing to throw my headset or a coworker out the window to get a breeze in here.

...then along comes this guy. :disgust:

My friend Matt (who's sitting with me) and I are ignoring it, but I hope this guy goes on his lunch or something soon. I'm feeling sick. :( And there's no where to go, either. All the computers are taken by other techs. We have more computers than techs here right now because the new training class just got out.

Just grab some potpourri, walk into his cubicle, and start spraying :)

Tell your boss about the poor hygene of this guy. If I had a worker come in with BO, I'd send them home to shower.

haha - he left for break, thankfully. But it's still lingering. I guess I could go borrow the Raid from the janitor's closet...

why don't you punch his face? isn't that your style? :)

i feel your pain. i used to work with this rather weird lady named veverly. what a goofy name, eh? she wore this absolutely horrible perfume that would make me sick. it was as bad as any body odor. i hated that freak and her crappy perfume.

p.s. we had a dude at work with rotten teeth. his breath was murder. he smoked like a freight train, too.

someone left him a bottle of listerine and some toothpaste.

maybe you should leave this guy some soap and deodarant.

Unless I'm out with friends and am letting lose the stress, I am a perfect gentleman in public.

I like that idea :) ...but I think Raid when he's looking would be a bit funnier to my coworkers.

when I worked at Packard Bell They had a Very Strict hygine policy, The building had over a 1,000 workstations on the floor at once usualy about 90% in use. There was one guy who was FREQUNTLY told to go home and shower. after the third time his Tech sup said "Either you shower before you come in, or don't bother coming in"


he showed up two days later smelling just worse than normal. and he was fired on the spot. same thing guy sat 4 or 5 feet away from me. And EVERYONE that could smell him (which was atleast 30 ro more people ) APPLAUDED as they escorted him to the door.

He's a nice guy, though, and he's very very good at what he does. I've been sitting here for months and I haven't noticed it before - so maybe he didn't get a chance. Oh well. It's okay, nothing I can't work through.

I feel like an immature retard even posting about it, but it's fun. :)

Heh, this reminds me of a time back in high school.

One of my friend's families signed up to be a foreign exchange family. Well they got this french girl, and she was hot! So naturally I went with them to hang out and when I got in the car with them I was like WTF is that smell. It was the freakin' french girl she reaked! We went to a grocery store and I could smell her two aisels down!!! MY friend left some deoderant on her nightstand but she didn't get it.

We may be decadent lazy americans, but at least we don't stink!!

this guy that lived on my floor in college...was the worst ever. he was a six or seventh year student and living in the dorms. his room was the most rank smell i have ever experienced. he would open his door and put a fan blowing into the hall cause the dorms didn't have AC and it would stick up our floor, the floor above, and the floor below. of all 50 guys on the floor, we only knew of ONCE that someone saw him going into the bathroom to take a shower (you know with soap products and a towel). that was the worst possible smell anyone can imagine. be thankful it is only at work and you don't have to live with it. :disgust:

One more thing I noticed ... he looks like an elf.


He's really, really skinny, about 5'9" or so, he has pointy ears that stick out, a pointy nose, two big buck teeth, and no chin.

:D

He's cool. I'll have to hastle him about it later ;)

Are you on a windows NT based network? Use the "net send" command, and tell him he stinks.
