Oh Urk
So today my labmate came in the office and jammed the door open. I don’t actually like that,as it makes me feel like a zoo animal (My desk is closest to the door), but the heating and cooling in our room is very odd and it is sometimes needed. The last few times I hadn’t really noticed the room being an odd temperature and my labmate hadn’t said anything. He just walks in, puts down his bike and then jams the door open. I was kinda wondering why this morming when I suddenly had a horrible idea.
I sometimes wear perfume. I think I was wearing perfume the last time he jammed the door open. I sat at my desk stunned and blushing at my moniter filled with the certainty that I was stinking up the office so badly my poor labmate needs to prop open the door to air it out.
So then I wandered to the bathroom and wiped down my hair with some water and paper towels (if I put even the tiniest bit of this perfume on me it changes scent), Now I am terrified to go near people. This is annoying. I don’t want to be like Arkie’s coworker. I can’t really ask Mr Bob, as he basically has no sense of smell..
So please tell me. Do I stink?

Well, bob, I didn't want to be the one to say anything...
Seriously, it could be that your labmate just has a very sensitive sense of smell, not that you actually stink.
I would have to ask him. Something like, "ummm, does my perfume bother you?" How well do you know him? Do you feel comfortable asking?
Do I stink?
*claps both hands over her mouth and hums The Battle Hymn of the Republic*
When you ask him, remember that Yes means yes and No means yes. That's how it works.
Well, he told me that one of his New Year's resolutions was to totally abstain from bestiality. Does that count as knowing someone?
I think my hair doesn't stink (anymore). Other people did not appear to be fleeing my presence today.
No, you're just fine.
My advisor called me aside for a special talk about my cologne about a year ago...
Why does HD's comment sound like the opening to porn?
Why would I even think that? I don't even watch porn.
I'm not sure I'd put much stock in the judgement of beastiality boy.
*sprays Bob with Oust* I carry a travel size bottle in my purse, you know.
You could fart to cover it up.
And this is why I smoke. I often can't smell overpowering cologne. I know I stink, but hey, I can't tell. *giggle*
