Your aroma........
Over the past few weeks I have had several complaints about how people smell. This has been everything from BO to way too much perfume. Please be mindful of what you are expecting people to endure for the 8-10 hours you are here. If you are choking yourself (good or bad) its likely to be too much for the people who have to sit by you to handle. Your effort to be as odor neutral as possible is greatly appreciated. |
Re: In the company news!!!
Sounds like the girl I share my office with. Every time I walk into my office the wall of her perfume hits me. I really think it's the reason i've been getting headaches by the end of the day lately.
Wowie. I think someone I work[ed] with needs that note minus the perfume part!
Dear so and so,
Please take a shower. It really doesn't take that long. You stink.
Me
When I'm delivering catering in the building, I can walk into and EMPTY elevator and get hit with BO, COPIOUS amounts of perfume/cologne OR Cig Smoke (we are a 100% non-smoking property. They have to go alllll the way out to the street to smoke. They can't even just sit in their car in the parking lot with their windows up).
It's obnoxious. Why would anyone deem it necessary to bathe themselves in so much perfume that it can still be smelled on the elevator AFTER they have exited? Bleh.
ETA: a 0.
Hahaha
I was just wondering how you work out 10% non-smoking? Hehe.
And I LOVE meganjane's response above! That was exactly what I was thinking.
Putting it in the newsletter is way easier than actually talking to people about their personal hygiene, their diet that is exuding from them, or too much cologne/perfume, all of which I have done before. The perfume/cologne is the easiest because those things can send asthmatics into an attack, so that's the premise of the conversation. BO from lack of personal hygiene or food is a WHOLE other ballgame.
