Everyday I have to deal with girls 13-18 (usually) who are slathered in perfume. They wear so much that despite the potent smells of coffee grinding and brewing, and the other smells found in a cafe, such as cookies baking, and flavoured drinks, their smell almost knocks half of us out. I would love to say something, but frankly when you're working in customer service, you don't have much of a choice but to deal with it. We do however all joke and laugh about it afterwards though,and make hideous gagging faces.
Was the driver right in kicking her off? If he truly felt that the smell was impairing his job, then hell yes he did. I would not want to be on a bus where the driver cannot think straight or breathe properly, it's just too dangerous.
There aren'tmany jobs where you could get away with this (unless you own the place, then you can do whaterver the hell you want) so I'm glad that someone who actually has some basis in saying something did.
