The following is not meant to be gross. I may or may not have experienced both of these scenarios and I’m curious to know how others would handle them.
Pop quiz hotshot:
You are alone in your office and you pass gas. The second you do someone storms in your office and starts to talk to you. You know they have to smell it. What do you do?
You walk into a co-workers office and it smells like they just farted. What do you do? What do you do?
The “pop quiz hotshot” line and the line “what do you do” repeated were inspired by the classic movie Speed.
Gross. Maybe you should put a note on the door that says “Knock Before Entering…. Poot Zone” My mother in law thinks that FART is the F word, bless her heart, so we have to say poot. But anyway…. It is your office, maybe people will stop barging in! HAHA!
hmm… this scenario sounds familiar…
you have to acknowledge it, dude. it’s out there, you might as well talk about it.

funny.
for the office bathrooms.
this is one more reason I am glad Sara and I have our own office! poor Keren and Karen.
This happens every time I fart at work. I don’t know what to do.
Just claim it. It makes you seem trustworthy. Apologize of course, but claim it.
As a side note, I’m offended by the use of “classic” and Speed in the same sentence… awful movie.
Whoa, Dan. Don’t get crazy.
Normally out of the embarrassment and potentially fear as said person storms in…I just…pass gas again
grace…enough said.
If you’re really smooth you could blame it on the said storming person.
Your first words, immediately uttered as the other person enters should be, “It wasn’t me”. Then this should be followed up with, “Man, Rob was just in here trying to kill my plants and peel the paint off the walls. I don’t know what I ever did to him.”.
This has happened to me and I inquired about it to a friend. She recommends putting on very scented lotion afterwards. Then you just offer the barger a wiff of your bath and body works collection.
