Should have argued that Putin shat in the bus. Since this is the UK, she would have been excused without question and got to keep her job.
Unless you directly shit on the seat such a fart odour doesn’t stick around for that long. It also seems unfair to dismiss someone even during a probation period if it only happened once like who’s to say it would happen again?
I don't really think this is funny. Like if this is a medical thing what is that person supposed to do? Like, I guess this can be used as a good example of why capitalism is bad.
Idk people get fired for medical related smell issues all the time. It fucking sucks, and like they have to work cause we live at the wim of the ruling class. People think it's a moral failure to smell bad and its honestly part of the issue. Yes, hygiene is important, but people can smell with good hygiene. Which is something a lot of people struggle to wrap their brains around.
I say this as someone who is sensitive to smells. Like, idk pay people to stay home if we can't stand to smell them.
Thought this might be something the tabloids are exaggerating but nope I was able to confirm this was a real tribunal case.
On the day of the first incident the Tribunal finds that the Second Respondent became aware of a significant odour whilst working in proximity to the Claimant and genuinely believed the odour emanated from the Claimant.
The Tribunal accepts the evidence of the Second Respondent that the odour was consistent with faecal matter potentially caused by significant flatulence which had led to soiling and was not associated with urine or urinary incontinence.
Basically a legally binding "whoever denied it supplied it" ruling.
More proof of our wildly unequal society:
"I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and sh[it myself], and I wouldn't lose any voters, OK?" 
Poor lady. I could understand being fired if you had a history of showing up to work smelly but this was a one off and it might have been a medical thing.
lol, i applaud the effort and great beefs of strength, but if you fart and still smell like poop enough to get called out by your domestic partner hours later, after leaving the scene of the crime and going home... you have caked your pants. scientifically speaking.
That's a get sent home offense at worst.
This seems like it could have been a discussion and beano / anti gas accommodation. Hygiene questions usually don't insta terminate people. Maybe some clean wipes and lysol between shifts. Way overkill terminating.
Everyone involved is filthy. Europe, smh.
Reminds me of a joke from my dad.
I started to write it out, but realized it's actually pretty gross.
