Rant

If I go to one more class at the gym and stand next to somebody who has intense BO, I'm going to be ballistic.

How hard is it to wash regularly and use deodorant? How do you not know that your crotch region and armpits need to be scrubbed daily WITH SOAP?!?

It was so bad, the instructor had to make an announcement at the end of class. I'm not joking.

I am trying to look on the bright side though- I was so pissed off about it, I think I worked out about 10% harder than usual.

There is a girl that comes to the gym (at our workplace, mind you) that has some crazy bad BO. Everyone in the class tries to grab a mat and go as far away as possible. There's no reason people should stink like that.

This is hilarious. What do you even say in that situation? "Um, class, I just wanted to remind everyone to shower regularly. Thanks!"

There was an instructor like this when I worked at FCCJ.  I think it was hard for students to take this person seriously when they could not get past the smell!

That is bad.

I know that it doesn't help (because technically you're supposed to put deodorant on before bed & not while getting dressed like most people do) but I ALWAYS put on deodorant before the gym. So nasty.

Pretty much! It was actually sort of funny - at the end he said, "I hope I didn't offend anybody, but you offended me!"

I love the girl that I used to run with, but she was like this. She's a good friend so we'd joke about it, but I'd have to yell at her half way through our runs & ask her to contain her ponytail better because it was flinging sweat sideways onto me.lol

*hangs head in shame*

Just ask jhapz about zumba.  I mean it's not dripping, but I definitely sweat a lot.

Oh I sweat a TON too, so I can commiserate in the awkwardness of being drenched when everyone else is barely moist. However, I bring a towel and make sure my ponytail isn't loosely flying about with sweat spraying everywhere.

In our monthly training meeting this morning, the training coordinator was telling us about how there used to be an employee who smelled really bad & our CEO had to sit down & have a hygiene conversation with him. Made me think of this thread I actually turned to Sikes & mouthed "Brittjoy's thread!"

OMG yes.  This is me.  But I do keep my hair secured.
