I'd start politely. "Excuse me. Your odour is a problem for everyone that works here. Could you please try and control it?" (remember, no point in trying to avoid being offensive when his smell is offending everyone)

If he doesn't take any action, ramp it up a little to, "I notice your still haven't bothered showering". After a week or two, "Geez, you still smell like ****. When I said you should shower, I didn't mean in your own feces!!"

lol i was also considering just spraying airfreshner everytime said person is in my vicinity... what makes this worse is that this person also smokes and has extremly bad smoke etiket(eticet?)
 
I'd say that you don't do anything about it yourself. Rather ask the boss or manager to take care of it. It's a tough situation though!

i have to take care of it as its not a work thing... so no luck in roping the boss in.

i just can believe there are still ppl stuck in a 10year old mind frame where they think its ok behavior. im not a neat freak by any means but this is driving me insane and i dont want to be offensive, i just dont know how to approach the situation.

Ok the smoking thing would drive me nuts. As an ex smoker, I was one of a handful that never smoked indoors, near non smokers and so forth. So this is something you can tell them that its really not good for them to smoke near you - I would just honestly tell them honestly not to smoke indoors or near you.
 
Can do with a nice nap.

I finished Far Cry 3 over the weekend and it was really good. It's one of those games that's just fun and you can get a lot done in a short play session.

oh they dont smoke indoors at all dont allow that at all. its just that for some reason the smoke just sticks to them when they come indoors.... have told said person more than once also not to stand near the open door as it defeats the purpose of smoking outside if all the smoke comes rolling back in...

look if you want to smoke that your thing but all i ask is be considerate to the ppl not smoking
 
My copy of Blacklist arrived this morning - luckily for me, I did not have to worry about downloads, just needed to log in to activate; weight off my shoulders.

This here is bad advice even if its true :p this is a grievance waiting to happen. The best thing to do is to make subtle hints and see if he catches them often people will even if you don't say anything if he doesn't catch the hint take it to HR and tell them you really cant work under the conditions and they will do the grunt work for you
