    I both stay very clean and use a range of scents, luckily no one’s ever complained I give them headaches and I usually get told I smell really good. I work with a lot of stinky people, but honestly sweat based BO isn’t the most common issue, it’s usually the smell of cat urine which keeps me a thousand feet away from the culprit or the familiar smell of someone who hasn’t washed their bed in a while and came to work straight out of it, I call it “sleep smell”… and that one’s starting to give me a weird complex because a really hot girl smells like it a lot and I’m starting to like a nasty smell… 😅

      Of you like a nasty smell then that’s one less thing in life causing you frustration and discomfort 😉

      I can say with confidence I’ve never experienced a person who smells like cat piss, and I know the smell…and here someone is with confidence talking about people sleeping in cat piss as a known/common phenomenon… 😱🤮

            i kinda felt bad for her because you get nose blind to this kinda thing and she likely didn’t realize it but it was awful

              Yeah, true. I’m not sure who has it worse though, someone judged so harshly all the time, or the people subjected to that stench…
