The Odour Coming From My Boss’ Mouth Is UNBEARABLE… READER Writes In

    Got this since morning, but decided to hold on till now, cus
    we already have a reader’s mail this morning, so that we don’t abuse the
    opportunity. And btw, this one is so funny, yet very delicate cus what you will
    tell her might help her lose her job or keep it. I feel sorry for her tho.

    Morning Ladun,
    I am faced with an awkward situation at work. I have a
    direct line boss to whom I always have to report any of my official activities
    to before final approval. The nature of my job constantly requires me going to
    him for possible clarification and first line approval before the overall group
    head signs off.
    My boss has a terrible and chronic offensive breath. At the
    initial stages, I thought it was due to the fact that he is usually quiet and
    keeps to himself most of the time; but even now that his new role requires him
    always voicing out, it just wouldn’t get any better. I feel it’s a medical
    condition.

    I have managed this unpleasant situation for close to one
    month now to be honest, it is really affecting my job. Most times, I try to
    look for ways to by-pass him and go directly to the group-head for approvals
    just to avoid perceiving the breath. He is beginning to take offence to that,
    not knowing I am not been rebellious or unruly, rather due to his predicament.
    Some friends/colleagues advised me to talk to him directly
    or buy him breath-fresheners or better still mints to always take. I am of the
    opinion he might take it to heart and act irrationally to me going forth.

    Can you please help me ask my fellow LLB readers what I can
    do?
