Apparently something stinks in the Lower Haight. Like, more than usual.

Think you can sniff it out?

Over on Craigslist, someone identified only as “Haz” is looking for a volunteer to determine what’s causing a mysterious odor in his or her home office.

In Haz’s words:

“Something smells in my office. I need someone to help me find it. I’m hoping someone can sniff around my office and find the item or items that are producing the slightly unpleasant, but fairly tolerable odor in my home office. It’s not that I haven’t tried to find it myself. I’ve sniffed everything in my office many, many times. It kind of smells like old cheese or a musty dungeon. Maybe it’s my upper lip but I don’t think so. I need a fresh nose to have a sniff around and find this item. I can pay in cash, smelling salts, a wine aroma kit, or whatever good sniffers prefer nowadays.”

If you end up getting this gig, please-oh-please report back with your findings — we’re kinda dying to know what’s causing Haz’s funky situation!
