MissIsis -> RE: How much does scent make you ravenous? (8/20/2008 4:01:17 PM)

I feel like the odd woman out. I get ill when I am around anyone who wears any kind of cologne, aftershave, perfume or heavy scented soup. My eyes get watery. My head feels as if it has blown up to 2ce its size, & aches terribly. I can't think clearly. It really is almost dibilitating when I am around people who wear it. And there is no real polite way to go up to someone & tell them to please stop wearing it because it hurts me. I have tried that approach with people I work with. It lasts about a day or two & then they think they can sneak a little on themselves & I won't notice, but I do. I just have to do my best to stay as far away from that person as I can get, which is difficult working in close quarters. I really find myself getting angry that people actually go out in public wearing scents. I think it is very inconsiderate. I work in retail & much of my work requires I help people, but sometimes I am so sick by the time I am through with them, that my productivity goes down the drain for quite awhile after. Personally, I am sure I am not the only one. I wish every person would save their scented stenchy things for their significant other at home. I would much rather be in a room full of cigarette smoke anyday.
