For some reason I can never resist tapping out the opening beat of the Four Seasons' "Rag Doll" on the wall/pipes while using a public urinal.
PS I bet everyone will be doing it now.

Spread some glue on the place where he taps regularly. Next time he taps, he would be stuck for good

"I'll try but I'm a compulsive tapper" came the response by email.

Had a gig sat next to a very loud P.A. who spent the day talking loudly to her mother about home improvements. In order to get any work done I'd insert noise-cancelling headphones and try and concentrate. More often than not, she'd then put her own headphones on thinking the office was a bit too loud (because of her!), and would bob her head in time to the music out of the corner of my eye for an hour or two. Tough gig, that one.

Email leaves evidence we can use to fire you later.
