I thought it was de rigeur to use curtains.

Indeed.

Curtains for yourself. Tissues for those you come across.

I guess that depends on the size of the knob.

He's probably sitting there telling all his mates about some loser of a contractor who spends all his time on CUK

You know what? You're right. He sits there all day talking tulipe on the phone, does no work, pisses off everyone who has to work with him, and gets paid well. He's an agent!

I hope you pass them some tissues afterwards.

Is that me?

No this one

I thought we need a thread to vent. Well I do anyway. I'm in the contractor corner with one other guy. This guy comes in spends at least 4 hours every single f**kin day making private calls, no exageration, friends, family he even puts together conf calls with all his mates and sits there talking, laughing. Puts down the phone, waits, oh, 10seconds, another call. All day. Bizarre. Manager doesn't notice. I am so tempted to grass him up. I think if he gets a contract extension (probably not) I will.

No contract renewal for phone boy

He's really cutting loose for his last month- it's a non-stop phone party!!

Why not try out minestrone's phone jammer?

[HeliCraig]

Nope - I'm on here aren't I? What pisses me off is being a captive audience. He's getting grassed up anyway.
Doesn't anyone else hate their co-workers?

Yep. Ask VF he knows how much I hate some people here.

The hooooge invoice at the end of the month more than makes up for it...

Take up humming or singing.
Get a tennis ball and start bouncing it against his desk.
Start asking him personal questions about whoever he's been talking to.
