This is a question Lurid Work Stories

"I know a railwayman of 40-odd years' service," says Juan Quar, "and he tells me a new gruesome yarn each time we meet. Last week's was of checking the time on the wristwatch of a severed arm he'd just collected after a track fatality."

Tell us the horrible stories you tease the new hires with, or that you've been told.
NB By definition, these are probably all made up. Roll with it

Using a room after a smelly person
It seemed everything was conspiring against me: no other free rooms, hot, sunny weather, unopenable window, no AC.

In such situations one says to oneself that one is strong, one is resourceful, one can get used to it after a while.

After 5 minutes I was still reacting like someone was tickling the back of my throat with a used tampon wrapped in a crusty's sock dipped in dog shit.

Smelly person was, naturellement, French.

Mind you random xenophobia asside
There was a French PhD student in our department and his BO was so bad you could smell if he was in or not when you got through the swipe doors to enter the department right down the corridor from the PhD office.

But to put in scientific terms from n=2 you cannot consecutively prove a theory ie that all French smell.

I was interviewing people for a job as a programmer
One guy comes in and he's dressed in a clean white shirt with cream trousers and a cream tennis jumper casually draped over his shoulders - he looked like the stereotypical "preppy" posh guy. And he stank so much we had to cut the interview short, open all the windows and hang out of them, gasping.

He was, of course, French.

Hahahahahahaha!
We'll need more detail, please. Garlic? Fish? General B.O?

General BO, I'm afraid
To this day, I have no idea what his programming skills were like, as there was no way were going to employ someone when we couldn't even stay in the same room as him
