We had a co worker who's house burned down and was living out of an old bus with no running water and 8 dogs (mostly strays dropped off in the state park next door.) He came in smelly. When we found out he was essentially homeless at 55, we were upset. Then management talked to vendors for materials, and had two paid work days during downtime at his property. They built him a 16×16 house and helped him rehome 6 of the dogs. He was an older man who lived alone so it was perfect for him. You will never find a more loyal employee. He stayed at that job 15 year and taught me carpentry.
Now there is a difference between that musky, sour, ball soup smell ya get when Larry over there hasn't showered in 3 days VS the smell of a guy that properly showered and deodorized before work and has been sweating all day. Don't think you can pass it off as "working hard". The nose knows dangit.
I used to work at a extremely hot job in summer with a man that had a stroke in the past and we both sweated so bad that in about 15 minutes we were soaking wet plus we were in water on and off the entire 12 hour shift making it almost impossible to breathe ourselves but the worst part was the other person we worked with no shower for days and he was quick to tell us we stank😂
@@RJ1999x old men use dental and medical coverage to the fullest, and with how long he has been alive I'm sure he knows the weirdest but most effective ways of staying scent free
I wish I'd had Ricky a couple years ago. We had this woman that was all like, "I only use natural products." So, those salts that she used for deodorant wore off about 4 hours in to our 12 hour work day. We worked in a clean room with great airflow that went from ceiling to floor. You could still smell her from 12 feet away. Yes I used a measuring tape from where I was working to where she normally sat while she was gone to lunch.
These all natural folks don't understand that the "more natural past" was a waaaay whiffier time. I say, if one wants to live the "totally all natural" life, they need to REALLY live the all natural life. They need to go work in a nonelectric and no creature comforts world. They need to work and live with their fellow stinkies. They need to get off the bus, work outside, and live in the wilderness. The rest of us left the 19th century behind, got electricity, running water, began bathing daily, wearing clean garments daily and DON'T want to revisit ye old smelly days. Modern life and work has lots of advantages....all natural isn't one of them. I bet that chick eats plenty of non organic, processed, canned food, right? 🤔😉 Our family was full of smelly gals. They worked as hard at not smelling as they worked to earn a living. They were ripe as hell, by the end of a summer day in that carpet mill, but the first half of the day, they were pleasant enough. Me? I could run 3 miles in like 20 minutes, in the summer, wearing sweats, and not even be damp and have zero odor. Those poor women? They got sweaty in the shower...but they put real effort into their hygiene.
@@dgeneeknapp3168 preach! My family has been farming since dinosaurs roamed the earth, it's not uncommon for us to take 2 showers a day during summer months. Even if the sheep and my border collie are the only living beings I come in contact with all day, I can't stand to smell myself. Hell, Razor will hop in the water trough and bathe several times a day. Go off the grid if all natural is your thing.
@@pixie.del.muerte oh wow, I thought I was the only one that showered 2x a day in the summer. I handle the garden or the property cutting, shower, and go about household chores or errands in the afternoon (too hot in the afternoon for outdoor work) and shower before bed. When I left the military, I swore I'd never miss a shower again. It was the worst thing about being in the field.
Telling someone they stink on a job would probably result in two options depending on age. Young person, you would be reported to HR. Older Person, you would probably need to see a Dentist, or not depending on who told them. Videos are funny, sad part, they are 100% true.
Bruh, I work with a 62 yr old former meth addict and his mouth looks like a nightmare on Elm Street and his breath smells like an abortion clinic dumpster. I always offer him gum and if he declines I basically tell him it’s not an offer but demand. He never argues.
I gave a guy a spare stick of deodorant after getting to know him after a few days. Not in a grand sense, just slipped it in his pocket. Dude stopped reeking after that. I work in a factory, and we run across enough reek to be also smelling each other.
@@angeldark404 Second shift operator at our plant is the poster child for wild onions 10 months out of the year. He comes into work that way, so his wife must sleep with him in that shape...
I was a supervisor in a shop producing oilfield equipment. We had this kid that stunk so bad I couldn't put him in a unit with anyone. Got to the point that he couldn't be in an open unit fitting pipe either. Myself, two more supervisors and our shop manager sat him down in the office (that we promptly tried to ventilate after he left). We used the PC language, and he reported us to HR. On our next conference with him, myself, the production manager and the other supervisors let him have it. Complete with baskets of soap and deodorant. Safety guy wasn't pleased, neither was HR, but the kid got the point. After his write up that is.
I just want to point out this video makes an obvious distinction between blue collar and white collar jobs, whether male or female, you will hear in the trades adult opinions on things such as hygiene. In modern offices if someone tells you "You Smell Bad." the person who says it will get referred to HR for punishment. In the trades (real life) if folks are telling you that you smell like a goat at 8:30 in the morning, you have to take your personal hygiene more seriously. I mean if Ricky and Safety Man are agreeing on something, people have a problem TBH.
I mean, I start at 5 am, I work inside, but on some days, it's work that gets my heart going sometimes, so I'll get sweaty. 8 am is a few hours in already.
Wait, is that actually a thing? Telling someone the truth that they stink is a punishable offense? What's supposed to be the correct course of action then, suck it up and smile about it?
This is spot on. I sweat easily when I'm doing a physical job, but I don't stink if I've bathed in the past two days. There is a big difference between the smell of fresh sweat and someone who hasn't even changed underwear in a week. I had a job where I worked with a woman who smelled so bad I could smell her before I saw her. Not joking. It was a problem long enough that management finally had to intervene. I genuinely don't understand people. Soap is affordable. How can you stand yourself if you are that damn gross?
Lol, when he got to the Boody eating, I lost it ..I was guilty of this years ago, but got told by a older man that I respected that everyone should eat Boody for breakfast, but know one should know that he did as it was disrespectful to the woman and then told me to go wash my damn face..!!!
Don't think I have ever felt so ignorant... Never occured to me that was what he meant. I assumed eating booty for breakfast was a euphemism for their breath smelled like s#!t!
This one is my favorite. Hygiene seems to be the biggest problem I encounter with crews. No one wants to wash their clothes either. I had guys wear the same 3 sets of work clothes for 5 weeks at a time with out washing them. We work outside all day everyday regardless of weather. The smell was hazardous. Then they complained their rash was from "Poison Ivy". 😮💨
I can't tell you how accurate this is! And spraying a whole bottle of after shave and perfume doesn't help that stank, and yes, we have women on the jobsite who stink to! I share, these guys forgot how to play with water!!
I once worked at a mechanic shop and we had a cleaning agent salesman come in and ask us for the dirtiest thing in the shop. We all hollered at the same time for a guy named Mike I swear that man never took a shower and he kept his fake teeth in the drawer in his toolbox.
@@rndmvar the salesman was up for the task however Mike grabbed his teeth out of his toolbox slammed the door and drove off. About a week after that the owner started making him go to the truck stop and take a shower when everyone of start bitching. This guy was something else he wouldn't put his teeth in unless the good-looking lady walked into the shop and then he'd run over and grab them out of the toolbox with his greasy hands and everything
I still remember working at the airport and loading the back end of a 757 with a coworker with him throwing me bags from the door to me to stack. His halitosis and b/o was so bad I was leaning out the side of the bin door puking my guts out, out of the plane onto the ground 15-20 feet below
I work in the beer distribution industry and it’s not uncommon to smell like a brewery at the end of the day or by lunch time depending on how busy you get. So I cut out the middle man and started using soap that smells like like charred oak and whiskey.
In grade 9 we had a science teacher that had tremendously bad breath. One day we took up a collection and someone went to the quickie mart and got a tube of tooth paste a brush and a pack of minty gum. Tied a ribbon around it with a simple note saying “ please use”. We left it on her desk when she stepped out. Dang it all. She busted out balling and ran to the office. Yup along come mr principal. He demanded to know who had done it. No one answered. So he gave the entire class a detention to which we were ok with. Then one brave dude lifted his hand, principal barked” and what do you want”. All he said was” she needed it”. Lol. Discussion was over. She went home bent out of shape. The next day she came back and you could tell she brushed her teeth. Lol. Sometimes a reminder is very needed.
We had a boy when I was in scouts as an early teenager who would never bathe, wear deoderant, or brush is teeth. After the third day of summer camp, we drug him into the creek, took brooms and car wash scrub pads with a bunch of dish soap and 2 of us held him down while the rest of the troop scrubbed him down. We had offered him soap and such since he said he didn't have any on day 1 but he never would use it, he learned his lesson and began taking showers after that.
This happened to me but at the school in a locker room. I have gland problems and at the time a mother and father who would smoke 2 packs aday each. Needless to say i stank even after I showered. It made things worse. I made me realize that no one liked me. I fell into a depression. I did stop showering. I stopped taking care of my self I was looking for a door to the exit and would have taken it. So you may be proud that you assaulted him but I'll bet that kid never forgot
The safety man speech literally is accurate. Ricky is the sidekick you love working with,time flies by and he's funny as hell. Sometimes you gotta tell him " hey man, shut the fuck up for a minute"
My husband is a general contractor who has been in construction for 35 years. It is amazing to me that this is actually accurate. So many mothers failed when teaching thier sons to bathe. 😳😳😜😜
It's not the parents fault 90% of the time it just that a whole lot of people no matter what Race religions or color these type of people going to do what they want and are lazy the first thing you hear from them when you tell them to clean them self they going to tell they are grown nobody tells them what to do
@@gardnetbush9768 you are judged by your fruits. If someone is lazy it's because that's what was allowed as they were growing up. It was supposed to be a joke but if you wanna get huffy...........
Yes. As a mother of three boys I found cleanliness didn't come naturally to them. Even when they became adults I told them to ensure daily shower, good deodorant and clean undwear, socks and shirt each day. Teeth cleaning, dental floss and mouth wash important as well. It's surprising the amount of educated people need reminding of these basic rules.
Can you please do a bleeped version so I can show this to my high school shop students??? Please??? We’ve watched some of your videos and we love them! I just can’t have a “mother*^*+£r” going through my speakers at the school. 😆
i give a lynx africa body spray to my young apprentices and sit them down and explain how its not going to work longer then 10min so get something that will work or we will wash u with the hose.
I shower every day but I always stink because I'm ripping farts straight from tartarus all day long 🤣 I once made my boss puke when we were in a confined space and I ripped a huge one
I knew the stinkiest person ever when I was a youngster. Dude legit took a shower every single day, sometimes twice a day, and he'd smell good every time he got out, so I know he wasn't fake showering... But his ass would go back to stinking in about 3-4 hours. So I know damn well that if you be smelling any worse than that, you don't shower enough.
I am laughing way to hard. This is so how it was back at the factory. Like for real if i can smell you throughthe masks, you all need to put some effort and wash, hell even every other day it helps. Oh this is amazing.
I used to be an insulator so we all wore masks working sometimes 3-4 guys in the same room. It’s already hot and nasty will all the fiberglass in the air. If someone farted it would get trapped in your mask once you breathe it in. 1 guy can clear a room in 30 seconds SO GLAD I MOVED TO FINISH CARPENTRY those guys are animals eating 2 burritos at lunch swallowing whole jalapeños and a soda
Got told by a musty guy he doesn't shower during the week cause 'he didn't want to sun burn'. Made him drive to the job in his own vehicle till he quit
I hate to say this but the military has the same problem depending on your job. I have had to teach 18-19 year olds how to do laundry before because they thought Febreze was good enough when working on jet engines.
That moment when Ricky was more then willing to come help the Safety Man , I was like wtf is happening? The translation between Management and Employee there was most excellent. Explaining the importance of washing your nasty ass. This is important subject for all. Please wash yourself daily. Cuz G*d Damn.
I have a spare change of clothes deodorant and cologne in my backpack that I bring with me to work. Ive had to put some on during lunch break before I'm in FL so I sweat a shit ton. I bring at least two spare shirts with me every day to change into while the other one is drying on the hood of the truck lol. I've been next to guys who I swear never put on deodorant lol it's nasty.
I have a backup backpack in my truck with everything , including disinfectant wipes two full spare uniforms , shower kit underwear ECT , but I still manage to get offsiders who ride with me that think just a spritz of cheap deodorant is sufficient , they smell like unflushed turds at the sewage farm .....
@@samc3227 antiperspirant is the bad for you one. Deodorant doesn't clog your pores. Other concerns are titanium dioxide (what makes most deodorants white) and anything with lavender oil ad thay has shown some correlation to male breast cancer chances increasing. Typically I also don't wear deodorant, but some days you just gotta for the sake of society. -Your Friendly Neighborhood Druid
@@samc3227 humans are a part of nature as much as every animal and plant and all other organisms and entities. It is my joy to learn about Terra (Earth). -Your Friendly Neighborhood Druid
I can't count the times that I had to send people home due to unnecessary stank. Grown ass men earning $1000 a week. Come to work wearing the same sour ass clothes they had on the day before. I was exactly like Ricky when confronting them and in front of everyone. Everyone, even the helpers were paid well enough to afford hot water, soap and deodorant. Just sayin, I can handle hot breath or even the occasional fart, but showing up at 7am smelling like Medusas drawers ain't gonna fly.
I worked with someone with halitosis. On road trips I had to roll down the windows. Always said, "A/C ain't worth a crap in this truck." It was a Ford. You could freeze ice cream in that truck.
let me just tell you something. Depending on where you live (Houston) it could be between the hours of 2:00 a.m. and sunrise and you step outside for 5 minutes and you already smell like you've been working on a construction site for the past 25 hours😂😂 and this goes for like more than half the winner as well😂😂😂
The only thing I took more pride in than those 10,000 slabs I helped finish in 33yrs was having a clean ass and Polo, Calvin Klein, or Norwegian Musk scent to go with it. Hell in the summer I'd shower before work and after.....the girl I hung with and am still with didnt fuck if you if you stank...I like that about her cause she doesn't stink either!!!
I've been driving forklift for the better part of 23 years, it really is a mental struggle to try to figure out how these guys stink at 4:00 a.m. and all you do is stand on a forklift you're not even lifting anything with your hands... Why do you stink?
I had a girl working for me that smelt so bad that customers would complain. I had to have the owner sit down and have a talk with her about it. I'm not even joking when I say if she was talking to a guy she was attracted to, the smell of dirty feet and ocean spray would intensify. I can only assume that she was leaving a snail trail all over her britches.
I ran into something like this in trade school, we had a guy who didn't have a lot of money and actually used his pell grant for tools and stuff. It got so bad and it was my final semester and I was asked by the instructor to help him with his 4 & 5 g pipe, and I could not stand the stank. He told me he didn't have running water at his place, I offered him my washer/dryer and shower after school. Luckily he took me up on it.
I show up in the morning I'll be wearing deodorant and everything. If I stink by the end of they day then you can go ahead and blame the foreman for making me work so damn hard.
I have a very poor sense of smell and it wasn't until the big boss of the company say me down during an evaluation and straight up talked me through how people were talking about it and it needed to be fixed before it became anger instead of muttering that I could fix it. Straight up didn't realize I smelled much at all.
This ain't no joke! I used to work on a road crew and we would have to share hotel rooms while out of town and taking showers were a complete rarity amongst all crews! There was one boss man that didn't take a single shower while he was out and was continuously told by his crew members to wash his ass! LOL
Ugh, people with a stink so bad it's tangible. An odor so bad you can almost cut it with a knife. Those people who use Speed Stick and don't realize it makes the smell worse!? And those people with breath that can peel wallpaper. People with bad breath need to get checked for tonsil stones, those thing reek!
You should do a video about showing up to the job and a different crew is just barely in the way of the work you got to do. Getting the boys a free day off
had a coworker that did not wear deodorant, i would tell him to and he would say, “ but I don’t stink I don’t need to wear deodorant I don’t smell at all” even though i would tell him. He probably can’t smell himself because he smokes three packs a day. shit was bad
Notice that the safety man didn't even reprimand him for saying he would smack the shit out of someone tells you how bad he's been thinking about doing it about this very issue 😂
I was on a job many years ago a female Iron Worker smelt so bad in the morning it was like smelling day old White Castle . I left lunch early one day and bought a small Deodorant and stuck it in her work area . She blew a gasket and threw that deodorant and almost it the guy she was working with . She thought he had done it but he knew I did it . He told me I was supposed to give him warning when I was going to do that but I forgot my bad .
Definitely the second most serious scenario... first being a scenario where both Roscoe & Ricky are up supporting the safety man, although I shudder to think how dire the required circumstances for such an occurrence would be
I have a friend who was working on a jobsite years ago and he had a few coworkers who wouldn't shower, even after being talked to about it. He got both of them in a FEL bucket, raised it up high enough that they couldn't jump out, drove to a pond, and dumped them in. He said they could shower regularly after that.
It's such a shame you have to tell adults about personal hygiene like are you serious my wife works in a factory and she tells me all the time about the nasty ass people that work with her people have no self respect anymore you should not have to be telling a grown ass adult that they have to take a shower or wear deodorant
Imagine working in a factory that has employee showers, provides free soap and shampoo (nice stuff too) and still having co-workers show up smelling like dookie at start of shift. YEAH!!! I seen it everyday for years.
