4/12 Anyone have advice on how to deal with co-workers eating bad
smelling food w/o causing an incident? --person who works with
alot of immigrants
\_ Yell at them to go the fuck back to whatever country they came
from. I did that. Sure, everyone hates me now but it got the point
across! (No, really. I was having a bad day and did that)
\_ Nothing personal, but since one can get fired for sexual
harassment, would this kind of behavior result in
anything? What's the proper response if you are the one
being yelled at? File a complaint to the manager? What
if the manager is yelling? I mean if the manager yells
"fix this code stupid", then that's one thing. But if he
yells "go back to your country" I think that's a little
too racial.
too racialist.
\_ You can definitely get fired for comments like that. -tom
\_ Post a sign at the microwave saying please be considerate and don't
heat smelly food in the microwave. Personally, I like fish but I
don't bring it to work in my lunch. -- Chinese immigrant
\_ Topic already well covered, move on...

\_ Is there some food (maybe Korean?) that smells kind of mildewy?
Sometimes there's a smell kind of like if you leave wet clothes too
long, and I used to think it was myself, but then I realized it's
only at certain times. It's either Indian or Korean. -someone else
\_ Wear a mask while they're eating and they'll get the picture.
\_ 1. No they won't get the picture.
2. If they do, they'll just think you're a racist pig.
\_ broaden your horizons, perhaps? i have a sensitive nose and at
times disliked the smell of indian and korean foods wafting
down the hall at work, but NEVER was it as revolting as
the nasty oily smell of mcdonalds "take out" nor the electrical
fire smell of microwaved popcorn. those are products worthy
of administrative bans.
