I have a steering wheel attached to my genitals. It drives me nuts.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation! -
My work demands concentration and quiet from time to time, hence why I told the client this morning I'll not be the office this week.Originally posted by AZZIK View PostDoes anyone else have a load of permies with their Blackberry's vibrating every minute! It's really starting to p1ss me off, and i'm going to have to say something. Any ideas for a "polite" approach?

I got one last year, I think I started the thread. They work if you are 100 yards from a tower, if you are close then you can pretty much put the thing next to the phone and nothing happens. It would not work in clientCo office as there was a transmitter on the roof. Outwith that then it has about a 3 yard effect range.Originally posted by bobhope View PostDidn't someone on here buy one last year? Are they any good?
I got the thing for the journey as my last gig required about 3 hours on the train each day. I would read the paper or do some work on the laptop, some folk wanted to do 40 minute calls. They just got cut off. I don't mind people using phones on the train, there were a bunch though that wanted to do conference calls each day, same 4 people, laptops out, mobile headphones on. The train should not be used as a meeting room as far as I am concerned.
