Try Me and Love Me

Went to a product test for detergents. This was the first non edible product test I have ever done. Didn't have a clue on how I test the things without actually using them, in 30 min.

The lady who always gives the introduction read through the general statement and purpose of the test, which she must have done like 20 times already in that day. She always wears shoes which colour matches her suites.

"You will test 3 detergents today,"
She said, but I swear she mispronounced and said,
"You will taste 3 detergents today,"
which is what she always says.

She told us to sip water to neutralize our nose. Alternatively,
"You smell back of your elbow to do this, if you can."
Was she concerned about fat armed people, or about people who has phobia of body pits?

The test ended with us saying something like,
"This smells like a good degreaser."

I think Henry does not look like a good hoover, but he really is. You should never judge a book by its cover, or its smell.
