How do you tell your boss HE SMELLS?

O My! lol Yea there is really now way to tell someone politely that they need to up their hygiene skills. And seeing that hes your BOSS....what really can you say? Perhaps talk to HIS boss and ask him to speak to him about it? I worked for a Data Entry company a few years back and this one lady hardly combed her hair to come to work, let alone take soap and water and wash or even try to cover it up with perfume. She just smelled, would have bits of only God knows what in her hair and her skin just looked all rough like it had never met a wet wash cloth and some soap. Now this was a grown woman mind you, and when the bosses would try and speak to her about it, her mother would come up there hollaring about a law suit for them saying something to her. I always thought, well if she didnt smell when she had her interivews, cos it took more than one to get hired there, when did her hygiene become a problem. I wouldnt hire anyone that came to an interview with dirt and debris in their hair and body odor. Im thinking your boss really is used to the smell and just dont think he smells badly. Could you possibly generate a office memo discussing the importance of proper hygiene? Thats the only polite way to say it without making him feel badly and pin-pointing him out.

Unfortunately for some ppl, I'm blunt so would of wrinkled my nose up and tell him to please stand over there cause his stench is making me sick to my stomach.
