Dilemma Friday: Would You Tell Her She Stinks?
Friday, February 6, 2009Posted in: Dilemma of the week
This week’s dilemma is as follows:
You have a colleague at work who has an incredibly bad hygiene problem. Her breath smells, and she stinks of sweat, and she’s constantly the butt of the joke, amongst other work colleagues. Your friend seems to be oblivious of the fact thats she smells bad, but you’re constantly having to defend her from cruel colleagues who take delight in bitching about her behind her back.
What do you do? Do you tell your friend that she has a hygiene problem, or do you say nothing, hoping that she will get a clue at some point?
