...they pick their nose, then they want to shake your hand...
And they are your boss?

A little subtle persuasion may work. After shaking his greasy mitt walk over to the sink and vigorously wash your hands. Don't say anything to him, don't draw any further attention to his disgusting habits.
After he smears his filth on you, wash up. Unless he's a complete and utter moron he may catch on in a few weeks and understand the understated concept of hygiene.

I would say "I am sorry but I noticed you did not wash you hands when we were in the rest room while ago." If we were alone...if someone was in ear shot I would smile and shake my head "No" when he extended his hand and say "I will explain later" and then later I would say the first thing to him. I am simply not going to shake someones hand and possibly get Hepatitis a cold or a myriad of other things just to be polite.

I would offer my boss some of my hand sanitizing gel that I have at all times, but my boss and I are way cool with each other. He'd just laugh and take the gel.
If you aren't as cool with your boss, I would suggest carrying hand gel. I always have it with me. It comes in handy when you go out to eat, gas up the car, touch grocery carts, etc.

If its anyone besides your boss just be super rude and ignore them completely when they try to shake your hand.
But if its your boss, when he sticks out his hand to shake your hand, just walk forward and give him a big hug and then go home and do laundry on whatever shirt you were wearing because he probably touched that.

I would shake his hand and immediately go to the rest room and wash my hands. If this is a problem in your work place, why not keep bottles of that liquid hand sanitizer handy in your desk drawer?

"and human beings imagine i'm paranoid for utilizing a paper towel to open the lavatory door on my way out" I try this TOO!!!! i encounter it disgusting at the same time as human beings do not wash their palms after utilizing the restroom. No, we are no longer paranoid. We merely be counted on reliable hygiene.

that is so NASTY !!!
I guess I'd have to shake his old hand ---then I'd run around wiping my hands on the coworkers who were silently laughing!!!!!!
or: you could say
"hey boss.....ya forgot something"
and drop that crusty booger in his hand
