Update on stinky coworker who literally smelled like ass Black Adder contacted me re an update on my situation-for those who don't know, they can read the original thread here:
http://prince.org/msg/100/350694
But anyway, my boss's boss ended up talking to "Estelle." I wasn't around when it happened, but I heard it didn't go well-she left the meeting in tears. The result is, she doesn't stink anymore or wear perfume. "Lack of home training crosses all boundaries." | |

It was such a touchy situation.
It's good your boss handled it and didn't leave it to you, because that's what bosses get paid for. (They shouldn't try to delegate everything )
It's sad her feelings were hurt, but she needed the truth. I hope she stays on track and doesn't fall off the perfume wagon any time soon.
I'm firmly planted in denial | |

Now that's a damn shame she had to be talked to in the first place. I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE UGLY. YOU JUST HAVE BAD LUCK WHEN IT COMES TO MIRRORS AND SUNLIGHT!

well, we figured her feelings would be hurt, whether it was a negligence issue or a medical issue... - but glad she fixed it... and that you didn't have to give the talk. Hag. Muse. Web Goddess. Taurean. Tree Hugger. Poet. Professional Nerd. Geek.

Geez...you'd think she'd at least wait to ball when she got home. This woman stinks in more ways than one. | |

Correct, no crying in the workplace unless there has been a death.

That's a dilemma, isn't it though... You don't want to embarress someone but then again having to work around that scent day in and day out can be intolerable... I know, I've had to do it. If someone isn't bathing, that is a sign of some kind of mental stress and/or depression. It is kinder to let the person know (maybe a note?) that they care and hope that person can get some help...

I bet she went home and asked her close friends/relatives if she really smelled bad. I also bet she didn't like the answer.
