My Boss is just flat out gross. .?

Ok, I'm the office manager, and I'm in my 40's. My boss is older, maybe between 55-69. He's an alcoholic and because he's out at meetings most of the day he eats a lot of fast food. I'm not sure if it's the combination of his age, diet and alcohol that makes him crap all day but it's driving me crazy!!! And as luck would have it, my office happens to be next to the bathroom. At whatever time he arrives in the office, the first thing he does is head in the bathroom and takes an "explosive" dump (I can hear it mind you) after which he comes out and leaves the door open, so the smell starts to make its way into my office. He also pees on the floor, and doesn't wash his hands. He takes a dump like this at least 4-5 times a day, sometimes he runs in there. I buy the office supplies so of course there's two different types of air freshener in the bathroom,WHICH HE DOESN'T USE. My office is mainly women (1 other male in the office) and this infuriates me that someone could not only be so nasty, but inconsiderate as well. How do you tell someone they completely disgust you with this????

    Kris, I feel your pain. LOL I am a married woman who has to deal with my husband's gas and nuclear terds. (pity for me) LOL

    Here's what I did....I went out and bought a product called Glade Sense and Spray. It sits on the bathroom counter (can also be hung on a wall) and is activated by motion. The minute your disgusting putrid boss takes a dump and goes to wash his hands or comes out of the stall, the release will go off on the glade and spray air freshener.

    The unit can go into a lock out mode for 30 minutes if you desire between sprays. You can customize this option of how many minute intervals you wish it to be in lock mode between sprays. Refills last for 30 days. Available in Clear Springs, Odor Eliminator (would highly recommend for your boss) or Apple Cinnamon, Country Garden or Powder Fresh. (requires batteries and can be bought at any supermarket). Price for starter kit which includes everything you need including fragrance and automated unit....$23.00-$25.00

    This works and beats smelling someone's sh*t all day. LOL

    Hope this helps to avoid a really sh*tty day. LMAO

    Automatic air fresheners might be your best option. An air freshener that hangs from the wall and that is operated by a battery specifically. I don't know if confronting someone like that would make a bit of difference, unless that person was rational and reasonable.

    What is done is done, but if you think he still has hard feelings about this, it would be good to tell him the truth, although leave the details out (stomach problem is good enough). This proves to him that you are still a honest character; sometimes the little things makes the longest impression even long after you've moved on to better things. He may remember you as one of the guys who lies to make an excuse to get a day off. But if you told him the truth that make the impression that you value honesty so much to overcome the awkwardness of speaking directly to him about this, even if it didn't matter anymore.
