I'm a little bummed today. I had to fire a guy for stinking. That wasn't his only problem, he wasn't up to speed. But his main problem was constant, every day body odor. It was embarrassing to send him into customers homes, he was hired for service work. Maybe I should taken him aside and told him to take a bath, but a 47 year old man should know that. Also, the other guys would make wise cracks like "smell you later".

Have any of you ever had an employee or co-worker that had a serious odor problem? What did you do? BTW, I took the easy way out and told him his truck wasn't proffitable rather than that he stunk. It was true, but not the whole story.
