surely simply a safeway uniform and an uppity manner would communicate much the same?

the funny thing is yesterday a colleague was saying "eugh, it really smells, can you smell that? what is that smell?" and I was desperately trying to change the subject and move him from talking about the smell, knowing full well that it was the guy next to me.

see, he had the right idea, just fuzzy on the degree of application

give him a welcome basket with something like this in it:
http://www.target.com/Claiborne-…you'd have to put other things in there, like a coffee mug, snacks, etc. if you're trying to be nice about it.
you'll make a new friend and have a nicer work environment.

tell teh fuckar he stinks and go have a wash.

This actually happened at the first job I was at - some odd little 40 year old historian buff, straight out of mother's basement came and did a few months work experience with us - he stank. His keyboard was gakky, he had terrible BO and to boot he was a social retard.
We smelled, we mulled we and complained amongst ourselves - eventually my superior just decided to tell him - she took him aside, mentioned it discretely - and guess what? Next day, he'd evidently had a shower and was making a bit more effort to integrate himself.
The flipside was that he did somewhat overcompensate with the Brut (or whatever Made in China brand it was).
Your call - is it to be an offensive nasal assault of a natural flavour or a chemical one?

- When he's not looking, dig into his mobile, phone his mum and tell her he needs a wash. Pretend to be your boss with your best Old Etonian accent.
- Bury down your disgust. In 3 months, snap - frenetically stabbing him in the nostrils.
- If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. Don't wash, eat loads of raw garlic, rub yourself with cheese, cycle to work and don't wipe after number 2s.
