Personal HygieneThere comes a point at which your hygiene becomes less your problem and more everyone else's:
My old school nurse never seemed to wash - instead she wrapped herself in crepe bandages from the first aid kits. The smell was beyond pungent. If you got ill at school, it was better to suffer than try and explain symptoms whilst only breathing out.
When she was eventually 'let go',they had to strip the wallpaper in her office to get rid of the lingering odour.
How scuzzy have you got? Or, failing that, how bad have people you know got?

when I was working for the governmentour office had a microwave, and a couple of the team, nice people though they were, came to me (because I was the union rep) and complained about the smell coming from the microwave...when people cooked foreign food. Like I say, they were basically good people, but I had trouble getting across to them that complaining to management that people are cooking stinky foreign muck might not be their best career move...
'um - I'd just say that you're getting an allergic reaction and you need to be moved.'
'yeah, but some of that food really stinks'
'yes...OK...but still'.
