Smells
In my office, we recently added a door. This doorway was cut out of the brick wall that used to be the end of our building. Many years ago, they added lots of offices, a laboratory, and two warehouses onto the existing structure. My office had windows (originally looking out into the world) that looked into the lab. They have since built a wall to cover those windows, and put in a door. On the other side of this door is a cubicle, where an intern sits. I honestly have forgotten her name, so I won't even make one up for her. She's young and going to school to be a meteorologist. I have no idea why she wanted an internship working in the R&D area of a paint company's laboratory, but whatever. The point is that I sit at my desk and I smell her all day long. She doesn't smell bad. She isn't gross, she doesn't lack basic hygiene practices. She's a relatively attractive, well-dressed young lady who just so happens to wear an overpowering amount of perfume. It's not even a bad perfume. I think my ex actually used to wear it. She just wears A LOT of it. I can smell her from 15 feet away through a door. It's ridiculous. I use that door frequently for my trips to the lab, and I can't stand walking past her. It's a good thing she is only here a few days each week. I would go insane if she were here more. Like I said, it's not a bad smell, it's just a lot of smell, and I don't like it. Have a great day.
