OMG that is one of the Aides my friend had in her room last year.. i dont think she showered often, her hair was greesy - and it was always down not helping with the sweating.. and all she did was EAT, everytime i went in my friends classroom.. she'd be eating.

but her smell was beyond gross!

OMG this is a great title and post, hahahahaah, no seriously I would buy her perfume. Talk about shower products like body washes or something like that, and ask her if she uses any or what kind of soap she uses? Its funny but seriously

it's insane. the whole front of the office stinks! i feel like i'm the only one who smells it.

the cleaning guy uses a funny cleaning spray i can not stand, but it doesn't seem to bother anyone else, or at least they don't say anything about it.

so i'm thinking, it is just my keen sense of smell???

can't be...

reminds me of pig-pen from charlie brown, 'cept you can't see all the squiggle lines around her...

OMG I am very sensitive with my smelling, so if something that bad smelled so bad and in a closed office I would seriously gag and throw up

maybe you can discuss this with a supervisor? We have someone in our office like that but it is obviously because of her weight so there is nothing she can do about it.

When this new guy started he specifically stated to the supervisor that she could not pass his cubicle. . . and they had to tell her that!!

Hahah its funny you say this, my boss smells SO BAD that we secrelty placed an air freshner under his desk!! try it, it works wonders. If she asks where that smell came from, just tell her they just cleaned the carpets.
