Car Park Skulkers

[DimPrawn]

Lunch at your desk with your headphones on so you can ignore everyone?

That's what people seem to do around here.

Darned antisocial lot.

:nazi: the lot of them!

And there he was gesticulating for me to wind down the window so he could fill me in with the latest installment of his washing machine repair saga.

Aren't you interested in washing machines?

I'd have thought anyone would welcome detailed advice on what to do and not do if one goes wrong.

Is there no break room at the office? That sounds awful. Maybe get a junker and put a mannequin in the front seat wired with explosives and a proximity trigger just in time for lunch next time.

Don't flash your headlights.

A funny breed this and not necessarily just confined to car parks but any outside space to which one may repair to get a bit of P and Q.

You must never make eye contact with these people as they will take this as a signal to bore you to death with the minutiae of the most boring topics imaginable.

And once they've started, there's no escape.

There's one active at my current client & I thought that by ducking in and out of a number of hiding places en route to my car at lunch time I had the measure of him.

Not so, unfortunately.

No sooner had I made myself comfortable and was preparing to tuck into the leftovers from last night's curry than there was a tap on my window.

Get a second mobile phone, primed and ready to dial your main mobile number. When he knocks on the window, smile and look as though you're pleased to see him then dial your number. Apologise that you have to take the call and put the window up. Do that every day until he gets the hint.
