because they dont know if they have bad breath as the human nose has something called olfactory adaptation.

They don't know. Best bet - keep a pack of gum or a bowl of mints near your station, and take one yourself. If you offer most people will take one too. You can't tell a customer or stranger that they have bad breath without insulting them.
ALso when you are sucking a breath mint, you can't smell the other persons breath as much. If for some reason you seem to attract these people, you can do what police and coroners do - rub a little Vick's Vapo Rub under your nose and you will smell nothing else. Does irritate the skin after a while, but sometimes it's worth it!

well alot of people cant help if they got bad breath i mean it probably wouldnt hurt if they used listerine pre brush b4 brushing their teeth, then brush their teeth, get a tongue cleaner and clean it thoroughly, and rinse their mouth out and then last but not least rinse with some listerine mouth wash and keep some breath freshner real close like gum or something, plus no onions unless they are sauteed
