So we have a new employee we hired recently. During this employee's interviews neither myself nor the owner of the company noticed an "odor." On their second day in the office, a few employees noticed an odor and on the third day EVERYONE noticed it. I will be honest - it was pretty bad.

Well, the next day towards the end of the workday, I brought the employee into my office and closed the door and mentioned that if they were wearing fragrance, there were a few people who found it to be too strong and we would have to request that it would be toned down. Things seemed to get better, but now it's gotten bad again.

There's a debate between the owners of the company and me as to whether it's from them not washing their clothes or if it's really, well, body odor. Today, I think I've decided it's the latter. So now the question - how does a manager/supervisor address this matter? And thoughtful (in both senses of the word) responses would be greatly appreciated.

Or is the Bible more supportive of religious intolerance?

If so, would that be why all religious (not secular as the Turks) Muslims want to destroy Israel and believe Jews are some sort of inferior race?

Do you think God has different laws for different denominations? The answer is no. We all have to live by His word. Don't get caught up in mans laws. Join together to give God all the glory!!

I am thinking about the concept that it was o.k. to do what you liked with your body because it did not affect your soul.

Why do people say things with the word "closet"? Like, "coming out of the closet" ... what is up with that? I'm really confused! As a straight person, I feel a bit somewhat sorry that homosexual people have to put up with this ridiculous thing...

Thanks for answers in advance! =)

We already say no to smoking.
We already say no to gambling.
We already say no to excess alcohol.

That doesn’t mean that people who smoke, gamble or drink are bad people, it’s just that their habit can be destructive.

Similarly with religion, it has a track record of destruction, violence, hatred, evil, killings and murder since humanity began. Yes there are also nice religious people, but is it time to say no to religion, for the better good of all humanity.

I believe in God.
I believe in Jesus.


I also believe in Evolution Theory.
I believe that SPECIATION is the reason why their is diversity among members of the human sub-species: Blacks, Whites, Asians Mongoloids, Oriental variations between Japanese, Chinese, Koreans, etc.
I believe gene mutations and natural selection have also aided in species diversity

I think people who make it seem as if A Person must believe in everything the Bible says OR believe in Evolution are RETARDED and closed minded.

Most of the stories in the bible such as Adam and Eve and the creation story are PARABLES. Jesus used parables to teach his followers a theme - not to force a belief on them. Jesus never FORCED anyone to follow him...he merely presented them with faith.

Many people argue that Evolution is junk science because it can't be proven in a lab...(it would take millions of years).
WELL GUESS WHAT...YOU CAN'T PROVE GOD EXISTS EITHER !!!

I mean they're only mounds of flesh tat hang down a woman's chest. It's so gross. Even my little brother loves them. Maybe it's because I'm gay, and I do not like women. But I saw a who "supposively' was straight and he saw a dude with man breasts and he said he got turned on. Even though it was guy. What so great about breasts?! I don't get it. Why do guys get so horny when they see them?

As a Christian, I'm not hateful of others. Non-Christians who have met me respect my beliefs as I respect theirs. I don't condemn gays even though I disagree with their lifestyle.

Just because I believe in the Bible doesn't make me hateful or stupid.

I came across someone asking "Was Jesus the son of God?" I answered "I don't believe so." I was honest, very polite, I didn't even say "no" flatout, just that, as far as my beliefs go, I don't believe Jesus was the son of a god.

Within five seconds, I had two "thumbs down".

Why do you think this is?

and you KNOW they heard you but they refuse to move, does that give you permission you shove them out of your way? Provided it isn't a small child or an elderly person?

It seems like when some hear the words "upper class", it gets them thinking of a snobby person with a ton of cash, big expensive car, huge mansion, etc. The so-called "perfect life" (even though I believe it very much isn't). I always think of upper class people to be simply very well-educated, intelligent, polite and have, yes, a good and secure amount of money but not necessarily millions either! And also, I have met some people who wore poor materialistically speaking, but spoke well and knew the right values in life. So it really means nothing in the end when we say "upper class" or "middle class"-- sure, the general upper class person will be more polite probably when in comparison to a "lower one", but you know what I mean. And coming back to the wrong upper class image nearly all people have, why DO they have it?

No rude answers please and thank you for your time!

Seems like a strange thing that God would put the yearning into our hearts to live forever and then make us where we only live less than a hundred years. I love this earth and the life God gave me. I want to live here forever.
