WHIFF
Friday 31 March 2006
Why do the majority of delivery men smell? I say men because I've yet to come across a smelly lady delivery person. In fact I've only ever come across one lady deliverer and she was hoiking crates of bottled water around - she didn't smell. I told her I liked her biceps. She told me she liked my earrings. I told her I made them myself. She was totally impressed. Phew I thought - she won't beat me up.
Obviously some delivery men have no choice - Manure deliverers...but water cooler deliverers?
Of course there's the whole manual labour thing, working up a sweat by pushing a trolley under a crate and wheeling it but surely deodrant would combat the smell? As we all know sweat in itself doesn't smell. Stale sweat does though as bacteria has built up.
Smoking doesn't do them any favours either. I can't handle ciggy smoke at the best of times but they tend to smell like they've rolled around in a economy size ashtray filled with fag ash. Mmmm sexy
I'm so paraniod about being smelly that I have 'smell better' sprays for every part of my body just in case. I can't stand feeling unclean.
I need a shower.

Me too Rhys, me too. Curry is so good, yet so bad.
It's because they don't bloody wash!

ooooerrr....you won't like me today. Last night's curry's repeating :S
But yeah, delivery men are generally are bad as they smell. Was drinking after work with a few work mates (all of them are very attractive ladyees) and some delivary men were subtly trying to take pictures of them on their camera phones.
One of them dropped their phone in their pint. Highly amusing.
