Just started a new job about a month and a half ago. This person in question has already been spoken to by a supervisor about an “odor” about 2 weeks ago, and now it is unbearable.

I like to think I’m a patient person, and pretty considerate of others’ feelings, but i just know that no matter how i word this he’s gonna just take it as being bullied at work rather than taking advice on what needs to change.

If it helps: dude has a girlfriend that he just CANNOT stop texting throughout the day, and it’s obvious that she’s got him on a leash. He keeps misplacing things, and sometimes doing double the work because she won’t leave him alone.

    Well, thank the heavens he took it well when i told him. But idk if it’ll be a wake up call or not. He doesn’t wanna talk today which understandable, but again he needed to know.

      As someone who has suffered/made others suffer foot odour, might I suggest the easiest way to fix this is cotton socks, highest percentage you can find. I was worried I was gonna have to go down the anti-bacterial foot washing route 3x+ a day, instead after about a week of my normal hygiene routine my feet stopped giving off eye watering stink and even my shoes lost their smell. note: I caught it fairly quickly, only bout a month but the last week was killer. If his has been longer he may still need anti-bacterial soap for a bit until his nails grow out, or see a doctor. Good luck.
