That's a great idea, except tell them there is an odor that might be gas and you can't identify the source.

Hopefully the embarrassment will be sufficient to fix the problem.

Heck, if OSHA won't act quickly, call the fire department - they will.

This guy weighed like 900lbs, had the stomach surgery, comes back and shits in his chair everyday. This guy actually takes a dump in a diaper in his chair. We could all deal with it if he was trying to better himself, but he is back to eating all day everyday again, and could care less about his weight gain or fellow employees. Management threatened to send him home if he didn't clean up, the management that said that has since left the company. We now have a new director who could care less what we have to smell everyday.  The bad part is, this guy sits right at the entrance to our office, there is no escaping the stench. He only bathes once a week too.  There are about ten of us in this office, we are getting ready to make something happen, we just don't know what yet. This guy doesn't do anything productive either since he is chair bound.

Before he had the surgery, the Fire Department would not let him work down here, because if there was a fire, they could not get him up the stairs.

Don't take this the wrong way, I am not a mean person, but this guy will look you in the face a let out an extremely sloppy fart. He could care less.



Lots of people think stomach surgery is like magic! I won't want to overeat or eat unhealthy anymore!!!

The truth is that it does not work that way. A stapled stomach does not change someone's mind about lifestyle.

You are in a bad position, because the guy can claim discrimination if he is fired.

Taking a poo in his pants in front of everyone, however, ought to be unacceptable unless he has a colostomy bag.

i talked to the directors assistant, she is going to enlighten him to the situation. She knows exactly what it is like.  We will lead a department wide offensive if we do not get results soon.

He might be just doing it to see how many he can annoy. You know like having a woopee cushion hidden in his pants, and hiding those nasty smelling stuff in everyones desks. Suggest he be promoted to customer greeter. Perhaps put him in charge of business development and give him a car to ride around in. Try putting chewable exlax in a chicklets box and leave it on his desk. Of course offering him some spoiled food is always good.

I'll try and think of some more ideas!!

Your health plan at work probably paid for Lardo's stomach operation.  Let them know Lardo scammed them, never got the operation and split the insurance payment with the doctor.  Send recent photos for proof.

Do you have access to his food source?  I'd say load him up on fat and sugar.  Might not be able to tell he was dead for a few days, though.

I he cleans up after himself there is little that OSHA can do.
However If others are exposed his body fluids/ and or discharges. OSHA will step in as it is a violation of Blood Borne Pathogens Standards.
If this is the case notify the company that the possiblity of a lawsuit is there (don't use your ok)  under the BBP standard.
Take it from there

OMG! I'm sitting within 15ft of that asshat right now. I was freaking out when you described your work area,  way too many aspects are similar. I work in a network conrol center located within a very large datacenter. Our lardass hasn't crapped himself, he just eats and chokes us out with his stench. We have been to HR repeatedly, they have warned him but he just acts like it's our problem. He has no personal hygiene, and just doesn't care how he looks or smells.

Talk to management and try and get it so you cannot eat in your offices and can only have water at your desk. If he keeps violating the rule thats grounds to fire him. Also if he cant eat there he may get up to go out and eat, take a shit while out and if he is gone enough to eat he may get fired for not doing his job or screwing the company for time (eating out of his cube while he should be working)

Good luck.

When I was in 7th grade there was this fat semi-retarded kid with a known shitting problem who sat in the same seat I did in the period before me.  You could sometimes see him waddling around the school in oversize khaki pants with a greasy shit-stain in the back.  Every time I would come in there would be shit on my chair.  It would be an oily brown streak or an invisible yet horribly odiferous fecal residue.  So I would come to class early and switch out my desk with another one (let someone else sit there).  The teacher thought it was funny!  This worked fine for almost a month, but I ran out of desks to switch with.  Some people began to catch on at this point.  I ended up using the class set of history books (I sat on them).  Some other people followed my example.  Finally the teacher moved him to a different seat and I didn't have to worry about shit streaks on my chair anymore.

Fear of litigation is a major factor in personnel decisions these days. For instance:

Someone who worked for us found a lost wallet. Rather than turn it in as it was, the person took the credit cards and bought a whole bunch of stuff ILLEGALLY.

Almost immediately the wallet's owner noticed that the cards were gone, and contacted the credit card company. The CC company saw the charges (over 1,000 dollar's worth, including an X-box, games, and more chinese food than ANYONE should eat) they immediately contacted the local police.

The police came to us with the CC company's report, and footage of our employee at Wal-Mart buying the X-box with the stolen credit cards.

Now if confronted with such evidence about an employee who used their position to facilitate their credit card fraud, what do you do as a manager?

Any sensible person would fire them without a second thought.

That was my first instinct. The decision, however, had to go to the Vice President level. Why??

Concerns about litigation.

Even when things appear clearcut, everyone is worried about being sued because that is how fudged up our legal system is.

It took weeks and several high level meetings to come to the EXACT same conclusion I came to ten seconds after the cops started telling me the story. Huge waste of time and resources simply because nobody wanted to get sued.

Are you serious that the guy actually shits in his pants ? Or are you just trying to illustate the point that the guy stinks like shit ?

If he actually shits his pants,I think the immediate area around his desk could be classified as a biohazard by OSHA.Feces has all kinds of diseases and if it leaks from his diapers,it could pose a health risk for other employees.

Good luck.

This is a true story and it is funny.....

A guy i worked with for some reason unknown to God took to wearing dirty clothes. At the time, I worked in an office where we wore a shirt and tie every day. Anyway the guy was in the middle of a divorce and didn't want to wash his clothes. So...every night when he got home, he took off the shirt and hung it up to re use. Needless to say, he fucking reaked after about 2 days. The girls in my office delegated me to speak to he man. Here's me: " George, we need to talk. You stink and you have huge pit stains. Take a shower, wash your clothes and get some deodorant." Not much comment other than the explanation I've already given.

Few months later the guys sitting at his desk scratching his ankles. I kid with him about having fleas. Honest to god, he says, "Yeah I have fleas. The damn cat brought them in." He then tells me that he can see them jump when he walks through the house. This was in the summer time. He tells me he wears long sweats and socks to keep the bugs off. His plan was to wait for winter, turn off the heat, open the windows and freeze them all the death. I tried to speak to him about it but he got pissed off. So I spoke to our boss who 'ordered' him to get the friggin fleas killed properly before coming back to work and spreading them around at work. That took care of it.

True story.

I have an email out to all parties who come into contact with this guy, just simply asking them to put their name on the email. Once this is done, we are going to petition the new director to move this guy to a different area.

We are in a union, so getting him fired is out of the question. When the fire department said he couldn't be down stairs last time, they moved him to his own little nook in a far off building. We are trying to make this happen again.

If we are shot down by the director, we are going to the fire department. one way or another, everyone is sick of his shit "literally"

You are in what is called a "hostile" work environment. That is a legit complaint and should be relayed to the personnal dept. The next time he sharts his pants and reeks up the place, notify the personnal dept and LEAVE, claiming you are psyically sick from the stench.

They will have no choice but to deal with him. There will be standards of attire for the company along with all the other BS stuff. Get a copy of EVERYTHING from personnal and use them to your advantage. Document everything and follow the chain of command. If your boss could care less, go to his boss as it shows he is a POS himself.
