...the new girl at work who sits in the cubicle next to mine has a bit of a body odour problem.
She's a lovely girl, but smells like a footballer's armpit after a particularly strenuous grand final. Even when she gets to work at 8am.
By the time the early afternoon has arrived, the smell has permeated to a clean 5 metre radius of her desk.
It's not so awful that I can't live with it, that's not my problem. God knows a bit of armpit smell is a perfectly natural thing.
My problem is I don't want anyone to think it's me!
What to do?!

Tell her: "There's this great blog you should read at jezzylife.blogspot.com!
That ought to do it!
:-)
Put a plaque on your desk that says, "My deoderant is still working!"
ROFL!
I'm sure people will know it's not you just from the intensity of the smell when it gets to your desk.
You could always get a table fan too, and blow it so the smell moves in the other direction...
Burn some patchouli incense. Patchouli and B. O. remind me of the hippies I knew in college.
Be kind about it.
I have had BO trouble most of my younger life. If I work I sweat, if I sweat I stink. It got me repremaded at work for "poor hygine" when I probably used TWICE as much deoderant and such as anyone else.
You have to see a doctor. They can either get you on a heavy duty lock it down anti persperant or you can, get this, HAVE SURGURY.
Me, I stink. I do what I can. I use the best there is, and, laurita, I wear patcholi....LOL, I am an old hippie.
Pretty much as long as I know I washed and attempted to be socially acceptable I have to depend on others to be gracious and kind on a hot day.
Many things, from food to medication, can cause problems with this, too. Why don't you google some of them and see if any apply to her?
You can bet she doesn't want to offend you.
