rravenwood Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 I feel your pain! My original office was right next to the employee break room, and the ventilation system was apparently configured in such a way as to pipe the break room odors right over to me. Fish soup was pretty common fare. I don't want to yuck someone else's yum, but unfortunately that smell just doesn't work for me... I'm in a different office now, and while I no longer have to deal with that, we get janitorial service right in the middle of the day so we get treated to the strong smells of restroom cleaning chemicals right around lunch time. I think this just veered over to the territory of the "unpleasant day" thread - sorry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think some co-worker at my former place must have liked fish and vinegar flavored potato chips or something once a week. Note: I only eat basic flavored chips anymore. I used to love sourcream and onion, but, just because I like the taste doesn't mean I want to taste it for 3 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
