How many of you wash your hands with soap after going to the bathroom? Here at my office, I don’t see a lot of people using soap in the bathroom and this somewhat grosses me out.
Is it okay to cut one’s nails at work? I think not.
Does it bug anyone else when people post the same thing on more than one triathlon internet forum? I just saw the same post here and on Gordo’s forum…this is especially annoying when the posts are lame (kind of like this one I am typing right now).
Have a good one,
Matt
I don’t mind, as long as the replies are from different people. Gordo’s forum and this one have 2 different vibes and the answers tend to follow along the same lines.
Not washing your hands is gross, not washing the rest of your body at least every couple of days is down right disgusting.
we’ve got a few people that come into the office from time to time, that stink so bad, the smell refuses to leave when they do.

What kind of office do you work in?!
I agree on both accounts. You could hear the click… click… click… of nails being cut today, much like nails on the chalk-board. Then later today, when I was changing cubes and moving stuff, I found a bunch of nail clippings in a drawer I was putting my things in. Ewwww… Nasty!
Speaking of smells, I unfortunately have to travel by public transport daily, specifically the underground in London.
I say this not because I dont like public transport but because I happen to work for the people that run it.
I swear to god you would never ever travel on public transport again if you knew what happened on it.
Two things that gross me out on public transport are:
a) eating on it, especially the underground or any city metro system
b) the seating, jsut so you all know the life span of seats on trains / buses is approximately 16-20+ years and the S**t that happens on public transport defies belief
There was this woman in the cube next to me at my old job, and, well, yikes. I’d hear her clipping her nails and everyday she heated up this rank smelling Indian food for lunch. Once she cooked us an Indian lunch, and I like Indian food alright, but this was inedible. She’d decide she was done working whenever, and open up her romance novel (hello, you’re supposed to post on tri forums on the internet when you’re done working…). To top it off, she had the LOUDEST voice i have ever experienced.
She had been laid off from the company once before, but, lucky me, was hired back to work in my section!
She didn’t wash her hands either.
Now let me tell about what I have experienced on the DC Metro…
I usually over shower. During the work week I work out 3 times a day thus 3 showers a day. One at 7 am, one at noon, and one at 7:30 pm. Just clipped my nails in my office this morning. Where are you Ben? WI?
It’s kinda a cross between a warehouse and an office. Indoors, when people come in for appointments they are usually dressed profesionally, but from time to time when we have someone come in to pick something up, they need to be handed a bar of soap. (I’d do it, but I’d prefer not find a new job.)
Burt,
Say it ain’t so? Why don’t you clip your nails at home in your own bathroom?

Work in Madison by the airport, live a little north…
Oh, and one more thing that get’s me fired up is how the heck can you splatter poo on the back of the toilet? Almost every day, some dude on our floor befouls the back side of the bowl and it doesn’t get “cleaned” by simple flushing. It’s like a trophy for all to see. Filthy pigs I tell you!
My Company is really cheap with their sick/vacation days so people are very reluctant to use em.
There is NOTHING worse than someone who sits on the other side of a fake wall coughing up a lung all day long when your trying not to get sick. If I get sick I can’t train and that is not cool.
I get my little fan and point it upward, hoping that the germs will blow over my cube and go into the next one.
