I had the same problem.But not only did my smelly manager have reverse acidity and gas, he used to bike to work and didn't think it necessary to shower or use deo or even change out of his cycling shorts unless he had a meeting to attend.
My solution was to take lots of small coffee breaks and to keep perfumed wipes on the desk so I could cough into them when it got really bad. Survived six months there, but I think I would eventually have had a word with HR about it. Try talking to someone to at least move your desk (further) away from the loo -- pretend to throw up each day until they do.

And they have got the cheek to wonder why by 5pm you've lost your sense of humour! Can you confide in his boss/HR at all so that they can resolve the situation for you? It's not fair (and I consider it unacceptable)that you have to sit in such an unpleasant environment 5 days a week. Approach his boss/HR by saying something like;'May I have a few minutes of your time to discuss a rather delicate matter?' Once you have raised the issue to management/HR, they have a duty of care as employers to resolve it for you. It is also a Health & Safety at Work issue which should be taken seriously. So please raise the matter - you do not get paid enough to work alongside such a gross individual/PIG!

Great, funny post! lol
