Yeah, pretty much that's all on you, not the employer.

The "right" behaviors/inclinations, I think, would be having good taste in music, eating food very quickly (I have better things to do than stuff food down my throat), knowing how to play an instrument (or multiple instruments), not taking shit from anyone (if it can be helped), cultivating a healthy sense of detachment from the things you love (you can be somewhat attached, just not to the point of being overly sentimental about things), knowing when to give up, being a satisfactory sexual partner, condemning people who make loud noises, being comfortable with your natural unwashed self, etc.

Examples of "wrong" behaviors/inclinations, would be listening to shitty music, eating food too slowly (if eating with someone else/other people, you're making the other person/people suffer), being a pushover when it comes to standing up for yourself, being overly attached to the things you love (I consider this a form of sickness), being bad in bed, making lots of unnecessary noise, always needing to be clean/scrubbed up (because God forbid your *cough* stupid *cough* peers reject you), etc.

Is this whole thread just a justification for not bathing regularly?

It's cute that you have opinions. Here, here's a cookie.

You did an entire thread about the value of sucking up. If you like your job, you’ll perform well and there’s no need to suck up. If you’re sucking up, you’re clearly in a job you hate.

You are therefore an inferior person.

Well what I was really describing is known as slave morality, otherwise known (by me) as pleb morality. In any case, there's not an inferior cell in my body.

It would smell like Lithium and my outrageously funky house brand.

In the geriatric health field, that's common, because it's considered unwise to cleanse the skin of elderly residents too often.

Never really heard of it outside of the field, however.
