San Diego cabbies cry foul over body odor test

42. I can do that however

when I'm dealing with smell and car-sickness then it becomes a challenge

Last week I was at my doctor's office and in the waiting room. The entire waiting room was empty except for me and this one woman comes in and sits down right next to me. Now for me, if I came into that empty waiting room I probably would have sat elsewhere but that's just me. But now I'm stuck in a waiting room next to this woman and turns out she's a super heavy smoker and her pores are just oozing of stale cigarette smoke. It was bad at first but after a minute or so I am able to switch my breathing over to my mouth and deal with the smell.

But problem with cabs and other moving vehicles where I'm not driving or at least in the front seat/front of vehicle is I start to get very motion sick and it makes it hard to handle both at once.

In the end I know I'm the messed up one but in the states I have asked cabs to pull over if the smell was that unbearable (or the driver was that wretched of a driver).
