We work in an enclosed space and he's always making noises with his face - raspberries, popping sounds, loud sighs, whistling (damn the whistling!)- I want to smack him but he's a manager and could make my life hard. Choose your battles...

Your only real option here is to use these moments to observe and work with your reaction process, to realize how you are creating suffering for yourself by fighting reality, and to use this situation as an opportunity for personal growth and spiritual awakening.
It is likely that all other options lead to you being miserable. Good luck.
Well..

Raspberries? Lol! He just sits there going "thbbbbbt"? You should get to know him, he's probably a laugh riot!

whitenoise is the answer…if you could have background music on quietly….maybe offices even make little whitenoise machines (like ocean sounds or the wind or a stream water sounds….for at your desk so that you can tune out all the other sounds as well.
