    I sit in a desk with 3 other people. One of those people does a great job of personal hygiene\\u2026the other two not so much. I have dropped a couple of hints about it (I mentioned it is a good idea not to wear the same pair shoes/trainers every day so you\\u2019re feet don\\u2019t start to smell).\\nSome days, my stomach will churn from the smells that inevitably waft over.\\nWhat should I do - I am worried if I tell my boss to talk to them, he will mark me as a troublemaker/overly sensitive.

    To make things worse, one of them sits opposite and puts his feet under my desk, so the, let\\u2019s be frank, absolutely awful stench is right under my nose! :?

    It\\u2019s not just feet by the way, we are talking the full BO experience.

    I was at a interview recently. When being asked for expected salary. I mentioned a number lot more than what the company was expecting. It\\u2019s already been a week and I haven\\u2019t received a response from them. I really really love the company and the project they are working on. I would love to to contact the HR personal and tell that I am interested in the position even if it means less money. How do I approach the situation? I don\\u2019t want to mess it up more than I already have. \\U0001f641
