There is one actual professional singer who works in our office. He never runs around singing at the top of his lungs. So why is it OK for you tone-deaf loudmouth fucks to run around every four minutes singing some shit-ass pop tune when we aren’t even allowed to have a radio on? I am going to get a megaphone and a didgeridoo and then you’ll be fucking sorry. —Shut the Fuck Up

OB….May I make a suggestion ?
Bagpipes ~;)
Ob, you remind me of my father yelling at us as kids: “stop having fun down there!” whenever we made noise. Who pissed in your cornflakes?
We have a few of these at our office too. It’d be fine if we didn’t have a totally open concept office where you can’t hear a client on the phone (or at your desk) over the caterwauling. (Emphasis on the “CAT”.) 🙂
Speak with the HR person, tell them you’re a Muslim and it offends you (you don’t have to be specific) that will get the “day the music died” shutdown.
Sure that’s not ‘Cat o’ Nine Tails”, Gidget. >; )
In keepin’ wiv the sit-ee-ayshun.
LOL. Naw, but the same bitches of eastwick, actually. 😉
Sounds to me like you’ve a pretty good case for “Toxic Work Environment”, right? Make those HR slugs earn their pay, this week. LOL
What it would be like if people were allowed to sing in my office:

“I have no idea to this day what those two Italian ladies were singing about. Truth is, I don’t want to know. Some things are best left unsaid. I’d like to think they were singing about something so beautiful, it can’t be expressed in words, and makes your heart ache because of it. I tell you, those voices soared higher and farther than anybody in a gray place dares to dream. It was like some beautiful bird flapped into our drab little cage and made those walls dissolve away, and for the briefest of moments, every last person in the office felt free.
*Sigh* I miss An-day.”
Vuvuzela! BBBBBBBBBVVVVVVVZZZZZZZ!

yeah, and when they have their earphones, buds or whatever on, they sounds 10 times worse than they would without them. people are fucking tone deaf it seems. or the shit these days got them so fucked, they think they can do better, and some cats screaming in the night, can.
even the fucking raccoons fighting sound better than some, and karoke is the worst abetter.
I’m thinking you wouldn’t even get through belting out the first ‘cradle of filth’ song and HR would have the solution already implemented.
I love the didgeridoo, gotta get me one of those.
Jesus Gidget, those ladies at your office seem like they’re a little less than admirable.
lol op i can just see you raging into the break room with a chilly “Did i just hear… HAPPINESS in here?”
