Question of the day

[laramie]

Hi everyone,
Here is my question of the day for you all:

For $30,000 would you go for three months without washing, brushing your teeth, or using deoderant? Assume you could not explaine your reasons to anyone, and that there would be no long-term effect on your career.

 

[jaizei]

No, I don't think it's a question of if I would but if I could. I doubt I could go a week.

 

[Kristina]

You bet. If I start now, when can i expect my check?

Not even joking, lol.

I might go three months without deodorant, as long as I move to the mountains and become a hermit, would I still be able to shower?
As for brushing teeth and showering I can't even go a day without doing those.

Not even joking, lol.

Especially in this economy..I wonder how many would jump at this?

Three months is a long time to be smelling like crap....I would have to pass...

Yeah it is, I think I would have to pass too. After taxes and what not..

 

[dmarcus]

Yeah once Uncle Sam get his cut, won't be to much left over... Then your stuck with the stinky person image that will be hard to get rid of...

 

[terryo]

I'm with Kristina. I'll do it! Will the check come before Christmas?

All but the teeth, it could be a real health issue.

 

[ascott]

hmmmm....since I was laid off.....uhhhh, yup count me in

---

especially since winter is coming up here soon....it is bound to rain and I am sure I could get caught up in the rain a time or two....LOL

 

[Jacqui]

Count me in with the other smellies.

 

[laramie]

I could not handle not brushing my teeth, that would probably be the thing that would keep me from signing up, but then you could always stock up of binaca or mints..so maybe I would.

That's a weird question, I work in Biotech so no bathing woulf get me fired with cause. I signed a contract stating, must bathe within 2 hours of arriving at work.

Really? how do they check something like that?

 

[ascott]

oh sure....get all technical fbsmith ....would you or not....remember your job would not be affected

Come on over to the stinky side of town...LOL

 

[AnthonyC]

You may write the check out to AnthonyC...!

 

[ascott]

yaaaaay Anthony...another to add to the smellie posse

 

[fbsmith3]

There is no way to actually check if you bathed withing 2 hours before reporting to work.

The idea if you smell of BO or look in anyway unclean, you are asked to leave and use a vacation day.

When my boss found out I have a turtle, she asked if I handled her after showering. I told her no she was sleeping. I then asked if she interacted with her dog or cat after bathing? I even volunteered to have my hands swabbed for bacteria, but only if she had her hands swabbed too. LOL

Also , I'm a bit of a germphobe, so no I would not be able to do that. I have to shower every 24 hours or I go crazy.
Even when roughing it, I swim in the water, trying not to think of all of the stuff I'm being exposed too.

You stinkies just stay away from me, will pull the hose out...
