Situational.

I feel like that saying was more for situations like "you're at a dinner and the peas are cold but everything else was great, so don't bitch about the peas."

Now if someone I'm working with smells like ass, I'm going to pull them aside and ask if everything at home is okay first, then followup with letting them know they need to fix some odor issues, ya dig?

I'd have to punch you in the face if you did that to me.

Bad odour at work is a sign that the person is uncomfortable, and the fault is usually not that persons.

I used to have bad hygiene habits. I don't anymore, but when I did and I had to go to work, no one ever put me aside to tell me I smell like ass. If they did, I would break into tears.

So first you said you would get violent, now you're saying you would break into tears? Are you 12? I should hope you're not an adult if you would act that way.

There's a fair difference between "it's the end of the day and there's like a light sweat going on" vs coming in at the start of shift and people can smell that person walking into a room. I've dealt with both and yeah, I'm not going to say anything after a hot day in the summer and we just got back from being outdoors, cool, I get it.

But someone not doing their laundry/not showering/etc; becomes an office issue and that's not alright. We had a guy once bring in his gym back and straight up told us that his cat pissed on it last night, "but it shouldn't smell anymore." We were so dumbfounded we just let it go.

That makes no sense. What I mean is I don't live in an apartment, and most likely won't live in one. If my own house is on fire, I only have to worry about my pets and roommate, as I don't have a kid, nor do I babysit for people. Nor will there be a random baby in here. If my neighbor's house is on fire and I think someone is inside, I could go help possibly. And even if I was in a burning apartment building, in real life, I would mostly likely be able to save everyone. In the scenario, we weren't allowed to do things that would allow us to save everyone. Where in real life, we are. So stop saying stupid things like in your last post. There are many reasons why I wouldn't be in the scenario. And many reasons that even if we were in a similar scenario, most of us would be able to save everyone around us. Or help save everyone around us. Nobody even alluded to something like strangers aren't having babies.
