A woman who works in another department just had to bring me some documents. Her perfume was sooooo strong. Even though she left my office a couple of minutes ago, I can still smell it. It gave me an instant headache Chat Icon

She's very sweet and I don't have to interact with her often, but when I do, UGH!



In my office it's cigarette smoke.
A pack of them go downstairs like every hour on the hour to smoke.
They come back REEKING so bad that it gets into the air all over the place.
I went into a bathroom stall right after one of them apparently and I felt like I smoked a pack of cigs by the time I was done peeing.
I could feel myself getting COPD.
It's awful.
I'm super sensitive to the smell of smoke too so forget it. Chat Icon



YES! I think the cigarette smoke is worse than the perfume - and that's saying a lot!

I'll add to that.. what's worse for me are people that talk while someone is giving a speech at a wedding (usually its older people)
drives me nuts - like, can't you shut up about your dinner for 2 seconds and give this person your attention? it's so rude

I hate speeches at a wedding. Make it snappy. When I live in Australia, the speeches part took almost an hour or sometimes longer. The whole bridal party or members of the family make a speech. I hated going to weddings in Australia.

Yeah, it was crazy. One wedding was an hour and half of speeches. Then you got served food afterwards. It was awful. And they usually do family style food or there are two or three dishes that are just served alternatively. No choice at all.

My ex in-laws (Australian) couldn’t understand why they couldn’t do tons of speeches when i got married (in NY). They just didn’t get it at all.
