they had terrible bad odor

The human nose adapts over time to persistent smells, gradually making the odor less noticeable throughout the day
A smelly coworker can be addressed with air fresheners, open windows, or a direct suggestion about hygiene
Once you adapt to a smell it fades into the background, while repetitive sound continues to demand active attention

they played your least favorite music on repeat constantly

Earphones or headphones provide an immediate, easy solution to unwanted music in any shared workspace
Songs you currently dislike can grow on you with enough exposure, whereas foul smells almost never become pleasant
Persistent odors physically permeate everything around you, while audio you dislike can simply be blocked
