Tactful time intervals

You know how, sometimes, you're just dying to pull out the Lysol and disinfect because maybe someone with poor hygiene skills just came into your office and inflicted their very poor hygiene skills on one of the chairs? You know that feeling?

Well, how long do you wait after the Catbox Man leaves to soak the desk, chair, and carpet in Lysol? If you don't wait long enough, he'll come out and smell it and possibly be offended (but really, if you don't have the awareness to know you smell bad, is it going to occur to you to be aware of a distinct Lysol smell and therefore assume the catalyst for such a smell is you?), and if you wait too long, you eventually have to stop breathing through your nose and may pass out on your keyboard.

Poor Catbox Man. But maybe it's better to live in ignorance...too bad I have to deal with it.

Do it now. He won't know the difference.

that's like the Worst Smell Ever, too. After rotten tomatoes.
