Just Wondering...

Can I count a co-worker sitting next to me farting a LOT as "sucking"?

I had to put up with it a lot today.

I sympathise with both of you; being around someone who's farting is pretty vile. On the other hand, not everyone can prevent them, it entirely depends on what's wrong with their stomach at that moment. There are tablets you can take, but they don't always work.

Yes, you can.

A package of "Gas X" with a small bow on top left on their desk would be amusing and potentially useful. As might Bean-o. If the problems persist.

You also can try to broach the subject with, "So, had a burrito for lunch today, huh?"

Honestly, if my gas got that uncontrollable and I worked next to someone, I'd try to fix it or leave. And I might explain it as a courtesy.

Always.

Tell them to go take a poop. LOL!

If my co-workers are asses I'll purpose eat stuff that produces the silent but deadly ones for hours. There is this one chick who never admits being wrong, even when she referred me to me as "shayna" a girl who had quit for weeks. Its kind of nice having an indirect way of getting her back for that.

I'm happy to say that this is not an issue for me. I have a very poor sense of smell, especially when it comes to body odors.

OTOH, very pungent perfumes and anything vanilla scented drives me up the wall. Even if I can't actually smell it, those things will set off my allergies.
