Your Breath Stinks!
June 28, 2007
My family loves to eat; in fact we are so obsessive about food that while eating lunch we are discussing what we are going to be eating for dinner. Hell…all the animals in our family are named after food (Oreo, Peppermint, Pepsi, Cheeto, Squirt, Dr. Pepper, and so on). Because we all love to eat—we eat almost everything, especially lots of Indian food that has tons of spices and garlic that definitely has your breath kicking.
Since food is such a big thing in our family—even at the store I get our staff talking about what their going to have for lunch. Personally, I try not to have anything that will have a customer holding their breath and running for the door. If I do eat a bowl of Garlic Chicken and Lo Mein I make sure to have my toothbrush handy and scrub the hell out of my tongue.
No one likes to hear that their breath stinks so how do you tell your staff—your food stinks and so will your breath so you might want to stay away from eating that stuff?
How do you bring up personal hygiene issues with your staff? Do you tell them not to eat in store? Bring a toothbrush to work? What about their nails—do you tell them to get frequent manicures?
Regarding male sales associates…Have you ever sent him home because he came in unshaven?
What do you do when it comes to personal hygiene and your sales associates?
