I am so sorry in advance for this juvenile rant/post BUT I really need to get this off my chest about a co-worker who has no clue what A71 is and will never read this! 😉

I’m not sure if this person has IBS or some other medical condition to cause this situation but it’s reached a point of near mutiny at my office and I need to rant…this person is constantly passing awful and disgusting gas in their office. To the point where you feel yourself becoming nauseous if you have to go in there for too long. The odor is simply horrendous and it’s becoming a daily occurrence. It’s seriously horrible and everyone keeps complaining to me about this person on a daily basis. Granted, I am generally the person in our firm to deliver news about office decorum compliance BUT it’s not like you can just walk up to a person and tell them to stop crapping in their pants on company PP&E! 😉

I’ve instructed everyone to act like adults, to ignore the behavior, to consider that a medical issue may be in play, and scolded people for gossiping about it…but off the record I’m just as grossed out as everyone else!!!! There really is nothing to do but pretend like it’s not happening…it’s the only professional thing to do…but come on, man!

Rant over.

Hm, well, if medicine can't help her- you should look into getting her a couple pair of these:

They are charcoal pads that absorb order! That's human ingenuity right there.

If Mrs. Toots gas has the power to reach offices five doors down, I don't think charcoal will help her. Yuck!

Thanks for the update, Mints! What a relief to have that conservation behind you.

Haha no open flames near that gas factory. I would never have been able to have that conversation with a straight face. I would have been laughing my a** off. I might just fart in her office, leave, and on my way out, say, “SUCKS, DON'T IT??”.
