Could you imagine the smell...
A waiter in the UK has won an unfair dismissal case after his boss broke wind and 'wafted it in his face'.
Edgar Simplicio claimed that restaurant owner Alessandro Cretella burped in his face and also asked him whether he wanted to see a picture of his 'faecal matter' during his employment.
Mr Simplicio worked at L'antipasto, which is an Italian restaurant in south west London.
The restaurant is run by Mr Cretella.
Mr Simplicio also claimed that his boss would grin as he broke wind, deliberately burp loudly and walk around the restaurant serving customers with no shoes on.
At the start of 2020, Mr Simplicio said that Mr Cretella approached him and asked whether he 'would like to see a photo of his faecal matters' to which he obviously declined.
Mr Simplicio said that his boss broke wind in front of customers before wafting the smell towards him, something he said left him 'frozen'.
Tribunal
After a huge argument, the waiter ended up resigning and later took the matter to an employment tribunal which has ruled in his favour saying that the 'unreasonable conduct' of his boss leaving him no option but to quit.
According to reports, Mr Simplicio started working at L'antipasto back in 2007 and Mr Cretella later took over from his father in October 2016.
The tribunal was told how the owner has a medical condition called oephophagitis which means that he has excessive gas.
Despite this he denied the allegations but did say that he has a 'childish sense of humour'.
Even though Mr Cretella denied the allegations against him, the tribunal panel ruled that they probably did take place, 'given Mr Cretella's childish sense of humour'.
What a case for the history books, eh?
