If a employee or co-worker comes in with smelly clothes on what should i do?

Question

My coworker comes to work some days smelling like pure *** or ear wax. I feel sorry for her and I dont know what to say or do. She is even aware that they stink and she still wears them. she will walk in saying man i stink but she has no consideration for me.

Answer 1

Hey, I think we work at the same place.

Seriously, your supervisor is the one who should address this issue, or so I think. My co-worker, even though being talked to by our supervisor, comes in looking like she slept in her clothes. They're all wrinkled and usually has ketchup stains or some sort of stain on them. And sometimes, BO. It's disgusting. She said herself she doesn't shower everyday, she just "bird bathes". EEWWWW.

Good luck. Maybe you could drop some subtle hints.

Answer 2

Tell the co-worker in a professional respectful way. She might respond badly at first but will ultimately thank you in the long run.

Answer 3

Next time she walks in saying she stinks, ask her why? Let her know it bothers you and offer some suggestions... Can't hurt to try...

Answer 4

buy some perfume and deodorant on her birthday and just see what happen. She will know what does it mean.

By the way if one indian smell doesn't mean all indian smell.
same for muslim, one is terrorist doesn't mean all of them are terrorist.
same for american, one is home less doesn't mean all them are home less.

Answer 5

Answer 6

Answer 7
