My wife had a similar problem with a co-worker a few years ago. Lady would show up for work all week in the same outfit. Hair was ratty. Teeth were yellow/green. She stunk to high heaven.
HR had sent her home on multiple occasions. She'd shower for a few days--and then relapse. Did I mention she was suicidal? Husband left her, she lost custody of her kids... Now I'm a charter member of the "HR is worthless 99.99% of the time" club, but HR had talked to her multiple times, and they reached the point that the only option left was to fire her......and they were afraid of her killing herself (and the likelihood of a lawsuit as a result). I seriously don't know what else they could do. They did segregate her on her own little aisle, but my wife had to train her and could only stand 10 minutes at a time. *** I do know that the external firms from India we work with go over hygiene with those fresh off the boat. I haven't had an issue in years. Me? It's not uncommon for me to shower 2-4 times a day. Once when I get up. Once at the gym. If I smoked a cigar or grilled out or did yard work, once more before bed. (I can't sleep if I'm sweaty or have been sweaty.) |

A favorite of the wealthy from Dubai. I learned quickly to request a room no higher than the 4th floor. That was the longest I could hold my breath. Seemed to be primarily the men. The stench was so strong you could almost chew it. Ughhh. |

Well, after the second time she comes in wearing a gallon of cheap perfume and now it's just cheap sweaty sweet smelling BO. Like 10x worse than before. When I walked into the lunchroom someone remarked that "Anita" was all perfumed up out there and wondered what brand she was wearing. I remarked, "I think it's called Hot Day at the Zoo!" There wasn't a dry eye in the room. :D |

Some foods just seem to leach out through you pores, Burritos do it to me, it's why I avoid them. |
Burritos leech out of me, but not out my pores...

Yuck. When I worked in Ministry of Defence my boss Gillian Armstrong - hello Gillian, would do the most disgusting farts. Then she would spray cheap perfume around the place. Man. I could handle the farts or the cheap perfume, but together just about knocked me out.

Take a shower you smelly SOB, nip it in the bud!
Years ago working in a engineering dept that was humid, we always had a fan blowing cool air inside, we had a QA dude that would walk by and fart in front of the fan and chuckle as he walked off :mad: Yea we got back at him via coding! (Kerry KMA!) |
Dude you stink!!!!!

A lot is not actually to do with bathing.
What you eat and cook can effect your body odur just the same as a person who goes to a club and comes back smelling of tobacco smoke. Certain cooking odurs lingers on clothes hair etc and some foods will be excreted via sweat glands. if you eat particulalry pungent foods/herbs/spices this will be the case, Garlic, curry powders etc etc. also people are not always "aware" that they smell unless they are told. Some people also have problems with sweat Glands, bad teeth, certain medications as well. So B4 you start assuming people DONT bathe or unclean think that there actually may be other causes. Quote:

Body odor perceived as offensive may be reduced or prevented by using suitable deodorants and although body odor is commonly associated with hygiene, its presentation can be affected by changes in diet as well as those other factors as in my previous post.
hint/tip: For body odor (underarm, etc..), after your shower/bath, pour small amount of apple cider vinegar on a paper towel and rub under the arms (like a deodorant stick). You will smell like a salad for a few minutes, but it will control the odor by killing the bacteria feeding off the oil secreted by the body. A few days and multiple applications may be required. Red meats should be avoided. As for bad breath also known as Halitosis, or term used to describe noticeably unpleasant odors exhaled in breathing – whether the smell is from an oral source or not. Halitosis has a significant impact — personally and socially — on those who suffer from it or believe they do (halitophobia), and is estimated to be the 3rd most frequent reason for seeking dental aid, following tooth decay and periodontal disease. |
We currently have a youngster fresh outa college that thinks cologne smells good. One of the funnier girls in the office asked him the other day if he had a lunch date. He asked why she thought that and she said she could smell him from up the hall.
i'm hoping he got the point. |
