Dear Sir:
You know who you are. You spent all day working in my office. And if you didn't notice - you reeked - REEKED - of your hand-rolled cigarettes. ALL F-ING DAY! You stunk so bad that a colleague couldn't spend more than two minutes at my desk before having to go out n the hallway to finish our conversation because she was so overwhelmed by your smell wafting through the room. Someone else stopped by at the end of the day and didn't even set foot in the door, she just stood there making a slightly scrunchy face. Did you notice that I wasn't there much today? That's because it smelled like I was working in an overcrowded bar right before closing time. It was so smelly, I couldn't concentrate. I had to take a lap around the floor multiple times just to get some fresh air. I had a pounding headache from the smell by lunchtime that didn't go away until 7pm. Remember when you said you don't believe in deodorant because it is so unhealthy? Well guess what. The stench of your cigarettes masks any body odor. I understand that you just returned from a trip that may not have gone the way you wanted. But please, take a shower and put on fresh clothes prior to your arrival. No smoker (or anyone for that matter) should smell that overwhelming at 9am.
Now, you want to go ahead and ruin your lungs with your bad habit - go right on ahead. Keep on keeping on. But just keep it out of my office please.
Love,
