Got sent home after a half hour of work. For being stinky.
Okay, either boss-guy has super-sensitive sense o' smell enough to smell me from a room away when both rooms are air-conditioned, he can see smells (or my odor is so bad it can be seen), or something else is up and he's too polite (ha) to fire me.
I mean, sure, I didn't shower this morning, we had no water (our well stopped last night, just as I finished my shower). I explained this.
Is stinkyness (or rather, smelling like a human) so bad? There's a big 'natural' kick these days, but I guess that only applies to food and exercise, not scent. Oh, wait, 'natural' food is still rather surprising in content. I guess 'natural' is a state of mind? Eh, whatever.
I begin search for other employment. If my B.O. is worse than ever and the problem, I'll know it soon. If not, is firing because of personal scent a form of discrimination?
