Default Dreading work tomorrow...

Seriously can Monday **** off I'm not here for going to work tomorrow
I just found out I'm doing a shift with this guy who STINKS!! Its not BO or anything because I can normally handle that, he smells dirty and moldy!

I'm afraid to tell him because I'm still quite new and I don't want to come off on the wrong foot and upset him and I would normally ignore it but I'm spending all day with him in a confined space omg.

What should I do help.

soz for the rant but whatevz x

I feel for you.
Spray some perfume around the neck of your top (or collar) then when it gets too much have a discreet sniff at your top.
Good luck with it.
Ooooops, or aftershave of course.

The staffroom was tiny, and I heard people bitching on about this girl who apparently stunk (I honestly had never noticed it, but come on..we were working in burger king, surely we all stunk ) and I had deodorant with me because I always used it after a shift...and she was getting ready and I stood with my back to her and sprayed, letting it purposely go round me and onto her. She never clicked on. Mind I did tell her after the shift about everyones bitching and that...but it was a good solution for that day

Just tell him. It's mortifying being told. Apparently I stunk when I first started my work experience and I wanted to die. But they will soon improve their hygiene.

Speak to management, they will take him to the side and have a quiet word.

I'm going to work in half an hour

I've had to speak to a couple of people about personal hygiene and it was mortifying for both me and them but they did appreciate it (or so they said). The petrol station near me has a guy working there and honestly you can smell when he's on shift from outside and I wish someone would tell him. People are literally holding their noses in the queue...the other staff must either be immune to it or something as there is no way I could work there all day without saying something.

Have a discreet word with your line manager...handling tings like that are what they're paid more for.
