Ok, this might sound funny but it's not a piss take.
I have been working in a store part time for a few months to help pay the bills.
Everything was going fine until a few weeks ago when a new guy started.
He is a great worker and seemed to be an easy going guy but he stinks of B.O!!
I don't mean a fresh bo smell that we all get sometimes when grafting hard, its a crusty horrible smell that gives you the bolk..

2days ago when i was quite busy he came to give me a hand and i nearly puked,so i decided to have a quiet word in his shell and he freaked out..
I tried to calm him down but now he just ignores me, which is fair enough.
I could understand if it was medical or something but its not, he is just dirty and looks like he's been dragged through a hedge.
Yesterday the boss asked me what had happened and i told him it was just a misunderstanding.
Then on my t-break one of the girls came up to me and said she could not work with the guy.

Anyway here is the catch, he is the bosses nephew and none of us know what to do.
I do need this job at the moment but cannot work with the guy.
It might sound petty but you would have to smell it to understand it..
 
everytime he walks pass you spray him, the message will stink in :)
 
It a very touchy subject as we have a vastly overweight guy in our factory and he stinks to high heaven!

Human resourses had to pull him about his personal hygene but it's not improved a great deal.

I don't think this guy has showered or bathed for a good number of years. I think when somebody brings it to HR's attention they cringe at the thought of pulling him again.

He's been given hints by staff like Napsters suggestion but he's obviously oblivious to the smell that comes from him.

He tends to be avoided these days.
 
Buy a nice soap set and spray and leave it on his locker for him, if he still does not take hint, shrink wrap him and fck him through the car wash!!!!!

Yep thats the way it looks with this guy.
As its a big shed that holds the heat and given that we run up and down ladders all the time, we all sweat like mad.

@Napster- I told him the other day that i had a can of right guard in my locker if he wanted to use it, that's when he freaked out mate.

Tempting Rod, Very tempting mate..
 
Best to be straight with him, say somthing like

"your a nice bloke and a valued and hard worker, but you fcuking stink mate"

LMAO
 
Everyone resign on the same day over it ... the admins will have to sport it out then, else you all look for new jobs.
 
Reverse Psychology.

Tell him the reason you brought it up is because sweaty stinky men is your thing, and that you are worried that you are going to get an erection when you are near him.

Next day, he will smell like an explosion at a Shake 'N' Vac factory.
 
This is a touchy subject but have u ever thought of this.


i used to be a mgr over 20 people one of the lads used to be a bit smelly everyday and to my disaproval i had to pull him over and mention this to him,After a short chat he agreed that he did smell sometimes and vowed to imporve his general hygine.

A few weeks past and it seemed that he hadnt done anything major other than came in clean shaven everyday so yet again i had to ask him about it he insisted that he showered in the morniong and bathed at night so i left it.

Couple of days later he had to go for a local check-up at the docs and he mentioned this smelling to him even though he showered n bathed and the doctor diganosed him with a condition where he sweated 4-5 times more than the average man/woman and this is what was causing the smell.

he was given a special cream (only avaiable from a doctor) which he rubbed under his arms etc and this stopped it but i must say he has to use it for the rest of his life.


if im not mistaken the condition is called hyperhydrosis

hope this helps

I know someone with this condition and it's not the reason they smell. If you have good hygiene you'll be wet but not stinky.

well im just going off the lad mate he ponged but after he had been to the docs and was using the cfeam it seemed to be ok??


mr p
 
m8 if he was in the army or that the rest of the lads would just drag him through the shower no if's or buts.

So what if he is the bosses nephew, if you told the boss when he asked you then he wold have to action. if turn your stommach what is it doing to potential customers?

he uncle would have to do something as by sounds of it its not just an isolated case it is a regular occurance.

Thanks for your post mate.
I did think it may be medical but im pretty sure he is just dirty..
 
Hoppy, this has to be the funniest thread ive read in a long time..

Id ask the manager for a word, basikly just tell him the lad stinks.. (in a nice way).. you cant be sacked for that as its a private conversation and your just basikaly just pointing out the obv..
 
Is it worth it upsetting your boss and risking your job over a stinky fat bloke? The best thing that you can do is to practice holding your breath.

You crack me up.

Have a word with the boss, I wouldn't go in a shop if the staff reaked.
 
think of a nick name for him and keep using it message will sink in, you hope
 
tell him he is a smelly fooker and if the boss turns up tell him to make sure his relation gets a bath or fook off
