    You should get some black bin liners and cover all his windows, or get the cars either side so close he cant get out.Gather all his coleagues around the car then ring his mobile, so much fun to be had.

    If you would like to get the best hourly rate you have to take up a permie job and work from home. Surely the absolute rate isn't that great but most of the people working from home in a permie job can get away with 20-25 minutes of work everyday (and that's in the peakest times).
