Air Purifiers And Cleaners And Getting To Know People - What Do They Have In Common

My good friend has been working at his office for the last two years. It's a first-class job with real potential. He's a single man and ready to settle down and get married, so he's making an effort to look for a good woman. Since he listens to Dr. Laura all the time, his standards are high. There's no point in settling for anything else! But what does all this have to do with an air purifier?

Believe it or not he had begun to notice that one of his fellow workers is a looker - not only that, but she's also sweet, hard working and, more importantly, she isn't a gossip.

So anyhow, when she brought a small, portable air purifier to the office and my friend was somewhat interested. You know the sort of item I mean - it is one of those electrical air purifiers with a motor that turns a little blade within it. You pour the scent into a bowl with water, set the cap topped with the pump and it's ready. It goes buzzing away, ceaselessly purifying the air in the whole office.

Now, during his break one day, this guy managed to get up the courage to go to his colleague's cubicle to ask her where she picked up her classy air purifier. As he was walking towards her, she turned, took one look at him, and straightway turned to the air purifier to increase the amount of the lavender essence in it. My friend was really surprised. He had been thinking that she wanted to be more appealing, which is why she brought the air purifier, while all the time, she was hoping to get rid of a bad smell.

Not that he was a stinky person by any standards! Of course in the hot season, he sweats as much as anyone. But that was no rationale for being so condescending about it. Well, to continue with the story, he went on as though as he hadn't noticed her air purifier at all and right then and there decided to buy himself some antiperspirant. And maybe some breath mints would be a very good idea as well.

Despite his absolute distaste of the air purifier from that day onwards, he did begin to notice a lot more about that colleague. For one thing, the scent of the air purifier was an interesting reflection of her moods. Those days she was happy and the whole world seemed joyous, she would choose a heady citric scent. If she was glum and wanted to crawl under a rock, it would be lavender. And if she was in one of those strange vague moods, the scent, too, would be vague. He said he later discovered that it was some sort of oriental combination that included ginseng and a whole lot of other interesting items.

Anyways, just so you know, this air purifier colleague started noticing that there was a distinct deodorant smell about my friend. And instead of a scared and horrified look, she started giving him a weak smile - on occasion. She eventually concluded that he's a good guy and she risked going out with him. Not a lot at the beginning, but more frequently later. They're still going strong. All thanks to one lone air purifier.
