Do you think some smelly people actually don't release that they smell?

I'm a Team Leader where i work and i had the unfortunate task of pulling someone into the office to talk about their 'personal hygiene'. The fella in question always had a smell about him but on this day it was particularly bad. He seemed quite surprised and taken aback and said it was because he had a bad chest and was sweating a lot.

The fella in question is 55 years old and lived with his man all his life and when she died 2 years ago he just went into decline. Looks scruffy and unwashed.

So my answer to the original question is that smelly people don't know they smell.
 
Severe public humiliation is the ONLY way to deal with this..you should have pointed like a man out of a Kays catalouge and shouted "you stink of s***".

I think this is the obvious thing to do.
 
And while were on the subject of smells sometimes almost as bad is people that actually do shower everyday but use dirty towels, and you know the people that do it as it's a very distinctive musky/mouldy smell, what's the point in showering everyday and never cleaning your towel :confused:

I think some people actually beleive towels only need to go in the wash once a year something.

Surely the stench is omitted from something more serious?

If it was that bad, things like your gentlemen sausages and other bits will get really infected surely? Longest time I went without a shower was 5 days, that spanned over reading festival... I wore flip flops and shorts the entire time. I did however brush my teeth and use wet wipes on my pits, bits and face... Only to stop anything getting infected, or minging... So I didn't 'smell', just had black feet, nice toasted sun burn and luckily a skin head lol. Was such a glorious feeling climbing into a shower on the Tuesday though... Cleaning the tub wasn't as fun though :(

There's a chap at my work who is sickeningly bad. We've drawn the conclusion that he doesn't wipe his bum properly, a combination of that and sweat down below because he's forever spraying Lynx on his pits. It's unbelievable how oblivious he is to it. Apparently he's been spoken to previously by management but not taken any measures to reduce the smell.
 
When your quite big, its very easy to be out casted and this brings your mental state into play, blocking out certain things because it is easier to then to accept them... just my two cents but certainly telling him he smells in a polite manner mite help him in the future
 
my poo honestly smells better

to you maybe but i bet it doesnt to others around you !

eg when farting people often like the smell of their own brand even when nearby victims are feeling sick and blaming each other

maybe this lad was the same and liked his own stenchy tramplike smell ?


people who stink of wee sometimes get on my bus and combined with the heat it has made me get off the bus before
 
Working in a Post Office on a Monday morning brings in many smells. We all have cans of Febreze under our counters for the stinky ones. Why is it that the smelliest ones have loads that need doing! It just seems as if they know that they smell and try to drag out the transaction for as long as possible to see if I actually will die from their reek. :(
