Colleague who I like a lot (usually) just popped her head round my office door, which is next to kitchen, apologising for upcoming fishy smell, and then proceeded to microwave a fucking kipper. The whole building stinks and she has just posted on facebook 'XX loves a kipper, sorry colleagues for eau de fish' but, sorry, IMO it's gross and selfish to bring in such a stinky foodstuff? When I was pregnant that smell would have actually caused me to hurl (I'm not, but you know)

Toddlerama calling someone a brazen stench-monger seems a little harsh, but I like it Grin

YADNBU. It is bloody rude because aside of the pervasive smell, if you microwave oily fish then anything subsequently put in the microwave will smell and taste of fish. I have learned this the hard way (reheated cup of tea delicately spiced with Shetland hot smoked mackerel :()

think of something witty to stick on her fb page on monday morning along the lines of 'euuww. still stinks of kippers in here - bad start to the week. hope that was the one and only kipper that's going to be coming to work'
