    Diesel fumes

    Just a quick question.... we have some workers out the back replacing/repairing windows on the buiding where I work. The truck is parked under a vent and consequently there are now "wonderful" diesel fumes throughout the office. Someone has complained to management and we have been told to leave the office if it gets too much for us. Just wondering how harmful the fumes actually are.

    I took a long lunch break to get out of the smell as I felt headachy and nauseas. Workers have finished for now - hopefully it will stay that way.
