    In this day and age smelly people should be a rarity.
    However,this is not the case.Theres two fellas working with me who fcukin stink.
    Smelly bastard no.1 hums of grease and dog crap.
    Smelly bastard no.2 has a bang of socks and jizz.
    We were out for xmas break up recently and of course I was sandwiched between the two rank cnuts ,who ,even on a night out didnt bother showering.My eyes were watering with the fumes so I fcuked away from them before I gawked up a dozen pints.
    Both have been told by the boss to clean up their act on several occasions but to no avail.
    Do you work with a smelly person or know a stinker?

    I work with some smelly people who rarely shower and they have girlfriends :eek:

    I live with a smelly medical professional who carries out defacto fermentation experiments in the sink with his dishes on a weekly basis and washes raw chicken juice off the chopping board by running it under the cold tap for 30 secs and rubbing it with his fingers (which he then dries in the teatowel).

    Sucks to be me eh?

    Some people are just smelly and stupid

    oooohhhhhh look at me, I have a sense of smell!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 811 ✭✭✭cassid


    There is a guy close by who is a tad stinky, married with grown up daughters, I guess they can't smell anything. But he is so nice, but often find myself day dreaming when talking to him of shoving him into a bath and scrubing him- must be de mammy in me.

    In a previous job, had to tell a girl to wash more regularily, horrible thing to say to someone as she was so really sweet, but other staff and customers were running from her.

    Maybe you have grease, a bit of a sock, some dog shít and jizz stuck up your nose?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,041 ✭✭✭cocoshovel


    My room becomes quite smelly because I sweat and drench my bed sheets every night, but I take a shower right after breakfast every morning so I assume Im fine when I leave the house.

    However, I take a bus for college students in the morning and holy fúck I'm probably the only person who showers in the morning on it. It smells of stale sweat and musky bed odour. Then when I arrive in class some people sit there and spray loads on Lynx like its their daily wash and smell out the whole class room.

    Nobody should have to work with people who smell badly enough to make another person's eyes water? Are you for real, or are you just trying to tell us that you weren't the weirdest one at the Christmas party??

    Say it to HR - in that something needs to be done because you can't work in these conditions. They've already been told by the boss? They need to be told again.

    Or else say to them that you appreciate the job they're doing, but for some reason the soap they are using stinks and is causing you to feel unwell. They would have to start washing if you say something like that to them!

    I don't know if I believe your OP though for some reason...

    :D

    For real.Saying it to these smelly fcukers is like water off a ducks back.
    The two lads in question are in their late 50s/early 60s and are not going to change.Myself and my colleagues have tried it all from subtle hints to full blown slagging.
    What are the chances of working with two stinkers.Tis like the perfect storm.

    Its a sensitive topic, some people can't help help smelling, even if they shower multiple times a day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,647 ✭✭✭✭El Weirdo

    Maybe they should shower with soap and water instead of piss, vomit and shite, then.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,838 ✭✭✭✭3hn2givr7mx1sc


    I know one auld fella that's not allowed to drink in his local anymore because of the smell of him. The only way he's allowed to drink in there is if he sits in the smoking area and someone brings his pints out to him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,080 ✭✭✭lmaopml


    Being smelly is just unnecessary, and there's no excuse - have a bath! There are some smells that are excusable, that is - the smell of whatever somebody had for lunch or whatever - Tayto (yum) or an egg salad or some kind of garlic dip whatever can tend to linger somewhat, but it's normal. You worry when you get the same smelliness daily. It's objectionable to work in an office with somebody who stinks daily of sweat or yesterdays sweat...

    Repeat smelly breath offenders however,.....bleugh..yok..puke...smelly breath is really really really offensive, especially when they are very close and perhaps explaining the finer details of something up close - all you can think of is holding your breath to defend against the smelliness pervading your personal space. Bleugh..

    I worked with a guy who absolutely stank to high heaven. I was really confused when I heard he had a girlfriend (especially as I was single at the time). But when we eventually met his girlfriend, we found out that she stank too. Strange world.

    What do you do if it's your boss that stinks? This was the case in my last job. Now that I think about it, I have worked with a lot of smelly people.

    There are a number of medical conditions which result in a rank smell, its not that they are washing with sh!te.

    I have heard a similar story about a auld fella who goes into country pub every saturday night and the barmaid places a smelly candle on the bar where he sits before he arrives.

    I once worked for a firm where the Manager had very bad body odour. I left a can of antiperspirant, bar of soap, shower gel, and an air freshener on his desk one morning before he arrived at work. He took the hint. Problem solved.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,239 ✭✭✭✭KeithAFC


    No excuse in this day and age. Plenty of water and soap to go around.

    Thanks OP for making me thankful for something I had taken for granted - no, I don't know any smelly people.

    Well, an old guy could be excused, heck I've cleaned up after many old folk and cleaned them top to bottom, and made them clean and comfy, I'd do it again tomorrow for somebody that wasn't able bodied, or old and frail, I've cut their toe nails when they couldn't reach them anymore and it never makes me dry reach, because they're old and stuff and not able bodied, and I can help them.

    It's laziness as far as personal hygiene is concerned that bugs me, in relation to somebody who is perfectly fit to clean themselves - probably not the end of the world but it still bugs me, somebody being unnecessarily smelly when soap and water are freely available, but choose instead to just let their smelly shine and don't give a foop about it....yok!

    *Disclaimer* I had a person with very bad smelling breath work closely with me for a long time in a learning environment - It may have shaped my particular hang up...

    There is nothing more awkward them knowing someone who has bad BO i mean how do you tell them without inulting them ? !

    They'll all be using that as an excuse for their laziness.

    I went to school with a really heavy obese lad, he was huge and constantly sweating but all through primary school and secondary school the smell off him was absolutely horrid.

    Ever pass one of those trucks with the red canvas on top that on the way to animal disposal plants? (they look like roadstone trucks)
    The smell of dead decomposing flesh just hits you and its the most peutrid thing ever and makes your eyes water. Well maybe you dont know the smell but Im overly familiar with it as I lived near one of those factories and worked there/still visit frequently for personal reasons.
    Anyway, that is what he smelled like. Dead decomposing animals. I had to sit beside him many times throughout the 9 or so years I went to school with him and I did get used to it, but so many people gagged around him.

    Im not trying to bad mouth him or anything. He is a legend in fairness, very nice lad and I would class him as a friend and in the end he lost most of his weight and I assume the smell too but havent seen him since.

    Some people haven't a clue. They may shower but then they throw on the same old unwashed clothes. They think if they can't smell it its not smelly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,466 ✭✭✭tim_holsters


    A few years back a guy in work smelled bad. Some females complained and the higher ups called him in. When he returned from his "conversation" nobody could look him in the eye thankfully it was near the end of the day.

    The next day he never returned. Sometimes I wonder what happened him.

    Smelly bastard no.2 has a bang of socks and jizz.

    So one is humming a country song and the other has sex with socks ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 304 ✭✭Arianna_26


    As I said I don't know any people who smell on a regular basis but I hate when, in the middle of summer when it's really hot, I pass someone in a street in town and the smell of BO is enough to make me want to get sick.

    It's obvious they didn't shower, how in the hell do they not know they stink?

    I think this thread needs a song....

    Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat,
    What are they feeding you?
    Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat
    It's not your fault

    They won't take you to the vet
    You're obviously not their favorite pet
    Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat,
    It's not your fault

    You may not be a bed of roses
    You're not friend to those with noses
    I'll miss you before we're done
    Or the world will smell as one

    Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat,
    What are they feeding you?
    Smelly Cat, Smelly Cat
    It's not your fault
