A new guy sits next to me at work. He keeps sqeaking his shoes. It sounds a lot like rubbing a balloon or scratching a chalkboard or tearing styrafoam.
There is snow outside so his shoes are still a little wet and they keep squeaking on the chair legs everytime he moves them. I really dont know why he always has his feet up on the chair legs or why he keeps moving them or why he doesnt notice the insane sqeaking noise he is making.
All I can focus on all day is that stupid sqeaking noise. I tried glaring at him everytime he did it but he didnt even notice...he is in his own little world. ARGGGG!!
Any suggestions?

Grease up the chair legs with vaseline before he arrives. It'll not only stop the squeeking, but he'll probably bust his ass if he gets up and starts walking. df1

I really dont know about the *loud* part...i prefer anonymity...plus I didnt plan my diet for this. Maybe tomorrow.
Defiant1, great idea! Day three of the crisis, all options are on the table.
Here are a few other suggestions I was given:
Maybe some smelly dingy ones to really put the point across.
Ill start a rumour about the ROUS (rodent of unusual size) that is hiding nearby..that way when I bring the rat traps in nobody will question me.
I better start bringing in blueberry muffins each morning.

I'll be honest. I used to work on the night shift at a job where everyone hated the way the daytime manager treated us. My coworkers would all say "We gotta do something to get him back, what can we do?" I never actually did anything to the man. I would say things like "I think it would be funny if _________ happened." I swear, all I had to do was say it and the eyes would glow on my coworkers faces. By the next morning, whatever I had spoken would be done. The poor guy. I think he did deserve all the bad things that happened to him, but it was stuff I would never actually do. And you know what? It was funny. The manager was so pissed about one thing that a coworker had glued on the wall that he took a table saw to the wall and cut that piece out to take it to corporate security. I eventually got fed up with the company and quit.
Years later I had to go to court and a girl working at the court recognized me. She had previously worked on the day crew at that old job with me and came in the morning after the night crew left. She said she got fired for being late a few months after I left. I said "Why? You were always on time." She said "No, I was there early when the old night crew worked there. I always got there early to see what had happened the night before." I laughed. I never actually did anything malicious at all, but I was right. All my ideas were funny, even years later thinking back.
The manager actually split the night crew in half and had us working different nights so he could pinpoint who was doing what. I rambled off "I think it would be funny if someone came in on their night off to do _____, so that he wouldn't be able to pinpoint who did it." Bingo. It happened.
Sigh.

P.S. To this day, people will ask me why I add layers of security and protection in areas that they say "aren't needed". I just smile because I know there are people out there that are smart enough that it might be needed.
