Do you have the misfortune of having to work with someone who farts in the open

I unfortunately have to work with a dude who just farts unrepedently out in the open

There is a guy in our wing named Irv who farts regularly and doesn't care who hears it or smells it. The thing is our wing is 7 guys and 5 girls and 4 of the girls sit on one side and the 7 guys are all on the other side with 1 girl. The 1 girl hasn't seemed to care enough to say anything but the thing is Irv will fart when the 4 girls on the other side are up on their feet and moving. And even though they are on the other side of the wing they are still close enough to where they can probably hear it when Irv breaks wind. The guys for the most part don't care. I think its annoying at times but I don't care enough to speak up about it

Anyway it came to a point today when this girl named Rosemary had had enough. She got up and went up to Irv and said "You realize bathrooms exist for a reason?" and Irv said to deal with it, its a natural body function, excuse me for using my body the way it was designed. Rosemary said its really gross and inappropriate especially with women on the floor. Irv ignored her and when she left his cubicle area he lifted his leg and ripped out a long one. "Take that" he said under his breath.

Do you think Irv is in the right or Rosemary is in the right? Do you see this being escalated to HR?

What is HR going to do? Farting is necessary to live a healthy life.

Irv may have a medical condition if he can fart at will

How do you even hold a job? I hope you are smarter in real life than you appear on this website. If not, life is going to kick the shite out of you

I don't think he farts as will

He farts out loud about half a dozen times a day on average.

Most of them do not waft over to me but there have been times that the stench has made its way over and is rank enough to make me uncomfortable.

Of course I do but I don't fricking cut the cheese out loud at work where everyone can hear

Hell I don't even like to do it in the bathroom when others are in there.

Also I think Irv missed a golden opportunity to tell Rosemary that its OK for women to say "My body my choice" when it comes to abortion but when it comes to farting no we have to be dictated by others on how we can behave?

I bet Rosemary bleeds for a week. If men have to put up with that grossness then she can deal with some farts.

Should have shouted it instead as an alpha move to establish dominance.
