First of all, the so-called "work odor" refers to a unique temperament or atmosphere gradually formed in the work environment. Different people have different interpretations, some may feel that it is a sense of responsibility and tension brought about by work, while others may feel that it is a sense of fatigue and boredom brought about by work.
Personally, I don't particularly feel that I have a "work odor". However, I can imagine that some people may develop a distinctive work ethic over a long period of time, which may include professionalism, rigor, or even fashion.
The following is my analysis of the "work ethic" from four aspects:
1. Influence of the work environment: The work environment will have a certain influence on the individual's temperament. For example, people engaged in the catering industry may carry the smell of fumes, while people engaged in the IT industry may carry the special odor of computers. These odors may become a basis for people to judge what kind of occupation a person is engaged in.
2. The effect of work on personal habits: Long-term work can change our habits and attitudes. For example, people working in the sales industry may pay more attention to their instruments and image because they need to face customers and present the company's image. This habit may gradually affect their personal temperament.
3. The effect of occupational stress: In a high-pressure work environment, people may become more tense and tired. This state may affect their temperament and image. For example, people who often work overtime may appear more tired and anxious, which may become a kind of "work smell" on them.
4. Personal self-image management: Some people may avoid the smell of work by self-managing and shaping their own image. For example, they may pay attention to what they wear, how they dress, what they say and how they behave in order to maintain their unique temperament and image.
In summary, "work odor" is a possible phenomenon, but not everyone will feel it on their body. People can avoid the "work smell" through self-management and shaping their own image, or turn it into a unique professional temperament.
