That wasn't that recent.
Raptor, I'll have to sneak into the car hole tonight and try not to wake Blue up.

Hey Unkie, sooooo (not so) funny story. For the past week or so there has been a very foul smell coming from our lounge at work. Despite a good cleaning, none of us could figure it out. I grocery shopped for work on Sunday and when packing up the food, I discovered the source of the smell: rotting meat in one of the reusable shopping bags. Naturally I could smell it on the bags when I took them - I thought the bags had just absorbed the smell, not that it was the source. So my question is, these nasty bags were only in my car for maybe 15 minutes, but now the stench has settled in my car, so how do I get my car back to smelling like second hand smoke ( ) without getting it fully detailed?!

Ideally, you should get it detailed.

Barring that, you can "detail" it yourself.

Mix water and vinegar in equal parts into a spray bottle. Spray all over the seat and let it air dry. If you don't like the smell of vinegar, use an odor-absorbing spray product designed to absorb odors from upholstery. Spray and let air dry.

Why did I forget about vinegar?! I have some mixed up at home so maybe I'll try it on my lunch.

Let me know what happens. I'm an expert in odors.

Hey Unkie, I'm switching our staff's schedules from 12 hour shifts to 8 hours. Now the problem is, how do I create a rotating schedule that ensures they still have reasonable days off and their hours aren't reduced? I've seen some websites, but they seem to be more for managing scheduling on an ongoing basis. I just wanna plug in staff names and the number of hours they work and have a schedule be magically created.. Any suggestions?!

Thanks for nothing. At least the smell of rotting meat is out of my car!

Now the smell will be in your office, as folks work too many shifts and start rotting.
