Okay, what do I do????????
 

I sit in a cube all day long designing car parts.

The guy sitting next to me is Indian ( from India ) and sings to his computer every F#CKING day. He is driving me up the wall.

Since I am the new guy, I don't want to cause problems, but it is getting to me. I tried an MP3 player, but then everyone in the group could hear Led Zepplin. That did not work.

Suggestions are welcome.

:eek:

Scalp him and shove it down his throat ?

Get a radio and play Classical music or Opra.

When they ask WTF? Just tell them it is not as bad as the Chit next door.

You could always tell him the Taliban is looking for people for suicide missions.

Tell him that his singing is bothering you. Most people will understand and stop. If he does not, tell him that you will have to post pictures of the killing of your cow.

Eat rare steak for lunch every day.

But make sure that your pictures show a White cow. And that the steak is very rare.

Ron :p

Sing louder. And pick the same song over and over again. I suggest Freebird.;)

Let's see - how about asking him to stop? Secondly, ask your supervisor to have him stop? Thirdly, call Obama.

Make friends with this guy, take him to lunch..get him drunk and make him eat some really rare meat. The next day just tell him that he sinned and when he dies..he will come back in his second life as a "Fly". When that happens...you will be waiting with a huge fly swatter.
or just ask him to stop the singing when your trying to work.

Call Homeland Security and tell Them he has a bomb.

Bring in a .45 and place it on your desk next to him. Or, bring some Led Zepplin tapes and drive him crazy. If that doesn't work just take the .45 and blow his fu3king brains out.

Do all of the above.....
 

.....and leave some travel-brochures from "Sunny Pakistan" on your desk from time to time!

Tru,
I can see where this could really bother you and it is a serious issue. Get some of the "Boise" noise canceling head sets and plug it into your MP3 player.

I am unlucky and lucky at the same time. I have about a 30% hearing loss now so I cant hear the other programmer's radio and it is less than 10 ft away. He does not keep it very loud (I am told) but other people can hear his radio over 20ft away. I know that I am going to end up going compleatly deaf (according to my ear specialist) and my ears ring 24 hours a day. I cant hear sh!t.
Hope it gets better for you.

Tru,

I am thinking of a few things...

Of course you must tell him that his singing annoys you. But you must appear very convincing when you do.

It may be illegal to bring a pistol or sawed off shotgun to work, but if you have an open dress policy, you could show up wearing full camo fatigues and blackened face with a beret to work. In that there likely may be others already dressed like this at work, you could also wear full cartridge belts in a criss-cross pattern, a bayonet scabbard with the largest knife allowed per company policy and a two way radio that you answer 10-4 every so often as it crackles indistinctly. It also wouldn't hurt if there was a little blood on your jack-boots. All fresh blood looks the same, so you may have to kill something on the way to work to get in the mood.

Alternatively, you could tell him that singing like that causes his car tires to go flat. After a couple of days of this coming true, where he will be watching you like a hawk, you may have to hire a delinquent kid to do the deed.

In the event he takes the bus, it is a little more complicated. You will have to weld up some of these double-pointed nail "jumping-jacks" and throw them under the bus tires just before it gets to the bus stop. It's important that the bus already be going slow, as you wouldn't want anyone getting hurt over just some annoying singing.

If all this doesn't work, come back here and post. Sooner or later, someone here will develop a successful idea.

I am so lucky in that most locomotive diesels drown out the singing conductors.

Top ten things to do when he starts to sing:

10. Run into his cubicle with a ukelele and play along.

9. Strip to your skivvies and a bowtie and give him a lap dance.

8. Howl like a dog.

7. Moo like a cow.

6. Squeal like a pig.

5. Run over and play "Name that tune".

4. Go over with a tambourine and sing "Hare hare krishna" as backup.

3. Toss panties at him.

2. Scream "STOP PLEEAS STOP YOU'RE KILLING THEM, CAN'T YOU SEE THEY'RE DYING?"

1. Grab him by the goatee and tell him to STFU before you rip his head off and crap
down his neck.

Wes....new plan........
 

....can you get a good recording of a hound-dog (preferably a beagle)? Have that ready. Every time this nose-hair starts whinnying, cut in with Le Pooch at high volume!!!!

The home called. They want you back before sunset.

Believe it or not, but I did the same thing about 20 years ago. Made a tape of the neighbor's three beagles barking. Every so often, at 1 AM or so, I'd play the tape with the window open. Of course, the dogs next door would go nuts for 5 minutes.

Did it help reduce their yapping? Hell no, but I got a ton of laughs.

Oh hey I just thought of something else you could do.

Print some "Black Water" materials off from your computer and leave them laying around on your desk and occasionally drop one in front of him and ask him to get it for you.

When he sees "Black Water" you start talking about how bad these guys are and their reputation they developed around the world.

When he asked what you are doing with them. Simply state you have a problem with a neighbor that sings too loud, and are looking for a cure.

:LOL::LOL::LOL:

Ay, Steve me Boyo.......
 

......I dunno what the "Blackwater" group is to which you are referring....Butt(!) my ancient Scots clan is "Dhu(b)-glah" or "Dhu-glas" (etc., through tons of variations)-----which means.......guess?!

Aroooo-o-o-o-o-o!
