The building I used to work in had an intake vent in the kitchen. Why anyone would put one there is beyond me. When someone burned microwave popcorn, warmed up broccoli, etc. EVERYBODY knew it about it.

when you consider the teflon potted, chemical goo that makes up microwave popcorn, it's a wonder anybody eats that stuff..

hard to say.

people that bathe in cologne give me a headache. luckily there are none of those here.

one guy smells like body odor 90% of the time. his BO doesn't give me a headache.

if everyone could smell like me i'd be happy.

No longer work with him, thank god

I work in a moderately ventilated lab. I wouldn't be able to smell them unless I were to drag a nostril across their armpit or something.

We work outside, so yes we tend to stink towards the end of the day. But that's why trucks have windows.

 

[skyking]

nobody real bad at work, but my neighbor must be conserving water at every opportunity. No showers, no clean clothes. He just stinks. Nice guy, but if I have any dealings with him it is outside on the porch if at all possible.

OK by me as long as you don't bring yesterday's stink in the morning!

Renuzit?

The interesting thing of course is that you're covering up one perfume with another, one which you happen to like.

The Renuzit Odor Killer is the best, but it doesnt last long.
Get them in bulk from Costco.

one cube over is the Booger Bandit. he's just a stinky f*cker and downright nasty

there are little chunks of dried skin all over the floor underneath his chair. my buddy shares that cube with him, and he insisted that i check it out. the guy is a freak... i don't think he showers. he clips his toenails @ work. he wipes snot on everything. every few weeks he comes to lean on my cube wall and talk about computers. i think he is getting the hint. last time he started with, "i know you don't like talking computers with me, but..."

Your office needs to install a large UV lamp over his half of the cube for sterilization purposes.

Maybe he'll get the hint.

(and be sure to surround the space with a thick plastic shield to prevent radiation to everyone else)

There's a guy I work with who smells absolutely horrible...his hair is always greasy and he smells like BO.

Every few months he gets a talk from his manager, and it gets better for a while, but then he starts to slip into old habits again...it's awful.

On Halloween some of us came in dressed up and he had no costume, but had apparently just decided to bathe and actually smelled like soap...someone asked what his costume was and I blurted out "someone with good hygeine"

Whoops...luckily i didn't get turned in for it lol

I have been told that if you increase your magnesium or manganese intake you can reduce a lot of natural BO.

maybe i should start dropping it in his coffee when he's not paying attention

 

[quakefiend420]

And just to clarify, he wasn't around when I said that...I'm not that big of an asshole.

I think my one roommate used Spring Rain, but it was Febreeze. After a few minutes, it smelled like a diaper, fresh out of the package.
I eventually discovered the real reason he was using that kind of crap - there was a leak underneath the kitchen sink, causing the board beneath it to act as a giant, moldy sponge. Once all that was dealt with, wouldn't you know it, the apartment didn't smell funny anymore. No more need for more artificial indoor pollutants.


I don't care for people who use those insanely strong deodorants/perfumes. I guess the line of thinking is that if you smell strong enough to literally give lung seizures to anyone within 5 feet, they'll immediately have sex with you on the spot.

Thats what a lot of young boys and girls need to learn.
It should just barely be smellable when someone is right up next to you.

I learned a long time ago with the aftershave. All I need is a tiny bit, then I wash it completely off. What little lingers behind is enough. Anything more is too much, especially for a work environment.

Clearly! As ridiculing someone when they aren't around makes you a good guy.

 

[Bignate603]

I can't tell. We had a sewage line crack, no water leaked but we've been getting nasty fumes. The whole floor smells like a gigantic fart.
