Fun in cubeville
A comedy conversation by No_Key_Bandit 76,490 10

My next-door cube neighbor is a bit anally retentive and gets extremely annoyed at the slightest irritation. He has asked me to not "bang on my keyboard so loud" in the past. Being that I am bored today, I have been calling the phone of the empty cube (right next to his) off and on for the past half-hour.



He has tried to answer it about five times; cursing loudly each time he gets there just to have it quit ringing. I predict a work-related shooting some time before the end of the day.

Post the phone number. Those of us with free long distance on our cell phones could call it too.

When he goes to lunch - unplug his network cable.



Make sure the cord is near where he puts his feet. This way - if he doesn't figure it out and calls the it department - he'll be chastised for unplugging it with his feet. Also - if you have a pbx phone system - you can put him on DND (do not disturb).



This most likely will eventually get him fired if he is stupid enough...



Also... change his vm password from the xt number to a random set of digits.



If he doesn't lock his computer - let us know. I'm sure we all can think up some fun things to do...

(Good Idea godot, but unfortunately we use a wireless network here.)



Update:

He just left my cube after complaining, "Some Emerson has been calling Liz's old number all freakin' afternoon, and doesn't get the clue that she's not here anymore! I'm taking up residence in her old cube until I can catch the idiot who calling and get some sense into him!"



He is currently moving a few of his manuals, laptop and some other essentials into the empty cube. I'm going to wait until he's settled and then start calling his regular cube.

Use the fax machine to dial his phone. This is especially entertaining if the fax has an automatic redial feature (in the event of a transmission failure), which most do.

At the risk of getting caught, you could call his old cube, wait until he's there, then call the one he just left.

Update:

After about ten minutes of being in the empty cube, our office manager came by and wanted to know why he was there. He began a lengthy explanation of how the calls were annoying him, and to get any work done, he had to move. The manager cut him off mid-rant and told him to move back to his regular cube as she needed the empty cube for a temp. Much grumbling and loud slamming of manuals ensued as he moved back.



I asked him to please keep it down a little, as I was trying to work and he was distracting me.



I am going to hell.

What is it about putting relatively sane people into cubes that they become little miss noise premadonas from hell. The personalities in our little corner of cube heaven cannot get a scrape of work done if you make the tinniest little noise; but they can hollar across cubes to enter conversations they over hear that they are not a part of, stay on a personal phone call or five for an hours, scream at clients over the phone etc. There can be no hearable music, which means ear phones only. Better chew and breath softly and God help you if you emit some kind of natural bodily function
