March hair

I had to threaten someone with the sack today for being unhygienic. He has shoulder-length hair which he hasn’t washed since High School and the grease on it is starting to drip down his back. That may be a slight exaggeration, but believe me he ain’t the guy you want handling your food on the deli counter.
I asked why it had to be me that spoke to him, bearing in mind he doesn’t work in my department, and Ginger Graham said “New company policy. Dispersal of negativity-based inter-staff confrontations through a meta-management responsibility sharing scheme.”
By the time he’d finished reading that I’d lost the will to argue and just got on with it.
Danny (the guy with the grease) took it well. He promised to wash his hair tonight if I let him have a free bottle of Vosene and I said ‘yes’
I’m not sure that complies with company policy, but stuff ‘em.
