STINKY STINKY STINKY!

[unholypet]

So, we're the customer. We = resteraunt I work in.

The players are DG (Delivery Guy), Manager D, Rick, and myself.

We smell the DG before he walks in with our weekly supplies. In the door, we smell dirt. He comes in the kitchen (where our walk-in cooler is), we smell BO. He starts talking, we smell shit.

Poor Manager D had to be close to the guy, and did the willy dance when he'd walk away. He also gagged every time his face got close to a box, because DG's hands passed the nasty smell along

He managed somehow to cut his hand on the door (wtf), and went to the bathroom to wash his hand. He came back, and didn't see the bandaid I left out for him.

DG walks close to me and asks where it is, I walk towards it.
Me: I'll put some gloves on,hold your hand and I'll put the bandaid on for you.
DG: OH! There it is, I'll get it.

He walks by close enough his jacket touched my cheek (I'm 5'4'' he was 6'4''), and his armpit went by my face. I could not hold in the reflex gag, but he didn't notice.

After a while, our eyes were frickin watering because of the smell! We passed it off as the onions I was cutting, but we couldn't smell them because of him! SICK!!!!!!!!


DG: Hey, can I use your bathroom? I didn't think about it earlier washing my hands.
ManagerD: Oh sure.

And, he has the walking farts.

Manager D waited until he was in the bathroom, and then said,"Thank God he farted, it knocked out the smell of the rest of him."

Rick started giggling first, then me, then Manager D. We all laughed for a good half hour after he left. Unfortunately, the smell did not leave for another HOUR.

I've dealt with people, friends and customers both, who smell like they could shower more often (in the case of one, it would've had to be once to twice a day, since every other day wasn't cutting it), but no one who ever smelled that nasty. What was wrong with his breath to smell like that?

We assume he ate an opossum and it died on the way down.
Seriously, it was like we were the recieving end:

Gah, I'd get people like that at the chinese place at least once a month. The only people who were worse were the women who bathed in cheap perfume. I remember one day I started coughing from it before this one women had made it two feet into the restaurant. She glared at me the entire time and told me I should be at home if I were sick. It took alot to stop myself from telling her to take a shower.

[MiloMorai]

Is he a regular DG or what? If he's going to come back again did the Mgr call the supplier and tell him not to send that guy ever unless he doesn't reek? That's nasty. Either tell the guy or at least call his boss so he can say something.

Thankfully the delivery guys and girls that represent the 3 or 4 courier companies that we use are great. No bad smell, completely coherent and just generally good people.

Certain customers though, oh my god. We have literally had to take turns in serving some of them. Bad B/O with both men and women is reasonably common in this area since the centre primarily serves Low Income suburbs, secondarily we have some senile elderly people who aren't cared for properly, and you can tell haven't bathed in months for whatever reason, or have poor bladder control. Thats probably the worst. One SCW as well from a different store ive had to work with before also happened to have breath that smelled like rotting flesh. We don't come to conclusions, but we offered him some gum (the guy offered it to everyone so it didnt look dubiously targeted), and he refused multiple times, which would point me to the fact he knows but didn't care. Thankfully all my co-workers at my store are great, so no complaints their.

Smoker's breath often smells like something crawled into their stomach and died and is rotting. I know that when I would ride in the car with my mother or brother (both heavy smokers) I would have to have a window open to be able to stand it. But when I was younger and lived with my family originally, I never really noticed it.

As for not wanting gum, some people don't chew gum. For the most part, it's good for your teeth to chew gum, but if you haven't eaten recently, you can give yourself ulcers.

I can't chew gum. I've mentioned before that I'm allergic to latex, well chewing gum is basically like chewing on a flavored condom. It's got rubber in it to make it chewy.

Thats a mental image I will now carry to my grave!

Then why do they make flavored condoms if you're not supposed to chew on them?

Unless the....never mind.

*reads drafters and ip's comments* OMG

if this guy delivers food, he may be violating a health code; definitely bring it up to his supervisor, because that's just wrong on too many levels.

soap and water have been around for a long time; there is NO excuse not to indulge in them occasionally (or more often, if you're more fragrant than usual).

The tech that came over to fix my Internet on Monday just wreeked of sweat and man stuff. It hasn't been that hot lately....nevertheless, after he left and before I went back to bed, I had to open two windows, turn on the fan and give the livingroom a good spritz of Febreeze Air Effects. Blech.

Weird O.o My BF is badly allergic to latex and he chews gum all the time. I never knew gum had rubber in it...

I used to chew gum all the time too, (despite it being on the big list of "stay away" that all of us latex allergic folks get every so often) and I never had a problem, but the older I got the more I would notice I'd have chest pain, or something that made me think I should quit.

I eventually quit chewing gum. A few months later I had a craving for some bubble gum, so I had a piece, and my throat promptly closed.

I think it's that your body gets used to it but if you quit and go back you notice a difference.

Now, in his defense, when I get to working on a tough install, I get to sweating no matter how cold it is. Lugging equipment and running wires can be surprisingly active. I'm sure I get fairly sweat-stinky myself when I do that. As long as he's cleaning up between shifts, I can forgive that.
