I go to work and when I hit the door, my nose is assaulted by the scent of various glade plug-ins and scented candles from my co-workers' offices. By the time I get home, I usually have to change clothes because my clothes smell like that shite. I hate air fresheners and just want things to smell like nothing.

When I go into someone's house that has these overly scented things, it's fricking awful.

Good story that you tell your wife after going to the strip club at lunch. Watch out for the glitter on your clothes. That’s what gets you.

Tell HR that the smell is bothering you if it is that bad.

I tell you what. After and during my boss takes a dump he goes HEAVY with the Lysol spray. Entirely too much. I walk in after and I can’t even breath. It makes me irrationally angry. In fact I think im gonna spray the shite out of his office and close the door here in a little while for when he shows up.

Eh, it poorly masks the smell after the morning blunt.

Are you suggesting they use unscented air fresheners?

Sort of defeats the point, no?

There's a difference between "simple" air fresheners like Gain or Linen and Sweet Mocha Vanilla Creme combined with H-E-B Butter Tortilla (I'm not kidding) candles.

And he needs to teach his boss about courtesy flushes. Or maybe get that steaming a-hole a bottle of Poo Pouri at the next office party.

As opposed to unscented air fresheners?

What is with people identifying rather simple things and claiming they are a “scourge on society” ? OT is more dramatic than ever these days.

I've seen people complain about some stupid shite on here, but this has got to be pretty high on the list. Talk about a first world problem, working in an office space that smells too good

People use air fresheners when the air doesn’t smell like nothing.

No issue at work, but both my parents and my brother's homes are ridiculous with the plug-ins. My brother & SIL literally have a plug-in in every single outlet in the kitchen & living room. You can smell it standing outside at their front door before opening the damn door.

It's so obnoxious that it usually gives my wife & I a headache, and when we go for holidays & such and cook food that we cannot bring any leftovers home because the food smells & tastes like it was seasoned with lavender. When we would open the ziploc or tupperware at our house it just hits you.

Hell my parents came visit two weeks ago, we keep our house cold so my mom wrapped up in our blanket on the couch and we had to wash that blanket the next day because walking into our living room we could smell their house as if we had a plug-in and it was just residual scent from mom covering with it the day prior.

That's not even to mention how unhealthy most of those more commonly used brands are with all of the shite ingredients that are in them.

ProTip:

Drop an Air Biscuit in his office when he is out. That way he thinks he farted or sharted himself.

My favorite gag gift for scent conissours is to get a candle that has a nice fragrant smell for the first few minutes and then changes to rotten flesh.
