I HATE coming to this particular Rio Salado store, gotta hold my breath every time. It stinks so badly inside, like 1000 people stayed in there for 10 years and they never opened the window or doors. Smells like dirty rotting socks and sweaty sneakers. I feel so sorry for the employees having to breathe in there. No other store in the shopping center smells like this Best Buy. Management knows about the smell but claims corporate won't do anything about it. Cos corporate doesn't work there and inhale the smell. They did clean the carpet, made no difference. Been like that for years. But this Rio Salado store is the closest location to my house.
Phew can't wait to get outta there cos I can only hold my breath so long when go in the door.
Years ago I worked at a large public library. I got a headache every day I worked. It started as soon as I entered the building, but only when I was in the building and lasted all the time I was there. I thought it was just cos it was not a nice place to work, but later we received notice that they were having to retrofit the AC ducts and unit, "because the existing system did not have enough oxygen and that's why we were GETTING HEADACHES", the notice said. AFter they did the AC duct retrofitting, my headaches disappeared. Wow!
I think the odor in THIS Best Buy ONLY and lack of fresh air is a hazard to employees health but many employees cannot "smell it", probably like some people cannot smell their own B.O. and bad breath, but everyone else can. Their own beloved smell is all they inhale.
