    Perfume and cologne. Makes me wheeze. Also long dirty fingernails, people who work with soil or grease or something excused from that.

      I was at a fried chicken place and there was someone in there wearing so much perfume it overpowered the oily aroma of fried chicken. What the fuck

      Glad to hear that workers like me have an exception. Always feel a little insecure about my dirty nails (I’m a woodworker and the grit from sharpening gets onln my nails and hands).

      Also hate super strong perfume. Sometimes there are old ladies, who I assume have little sense of smell left, utterly dowsing themselves in perfume. As soon as they open the door the smell hits you like a brick. Honestly I dont know if I hate the smell of BO or chemically perfume more. One grosses me out and the other makes me winse. Sometimes its so strong my sinuses and nostrils burn.

        I just mean people who are lazy about cutting their nails, it’s obvious when it’s someone working with their hands like you. Usually it’s gross old men with untrimmed hair and beards and these nasty ass fingernails and you know they’ve been on a bullshit disability claim since they were 50 and do nothing but watch TV.

          I grow my nails to play guitar and I’ve gotten flack for it, but my old lady doesn’t care and it’s nobody else’s business. I try to keep clean but the factory can be a punishment on one’s shiny cuticles

          it took my family member 5 years to get disability after a near fatal crushing accident. I have no idea how they’d fake anything and get on disability, maybe you can tell me the secret of getting it sooner? BTW, You can’t tell if someone’s disabled by looking at them.

      Sometimes old ladies shop at my work and the lingering smell of perfume transports me back to childhood, lingering in the hallway while my mom got herself ready to go out. That’s about the only positive thing I can say about most perfumes. I do like my wife’s sweet vanilla scent, though.
