    Thin Wall

    Got a bob in the room next to me tonight.
    Very thin wall and he's been having a very loud telephone conversation for the last half hour.
    Getting tedious now, especially as I can't understand a feckin word of it.
    At what point should I be battering on his door?

      As soon as you feel ready. Best to go through the rear door. Give him all you have got. Give him the battering of his life.

          Ah, off the phone now.
          Just as I was getting ready to take the advice offered.

            Get your own back - when he's finally shut up, have your own very loud conversation on something slightly technical. He won't understand a feckin word of it either.
            Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

              Be sure to mention the word quality and fit for purpose .. that will really confuse him.

                You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to NotAllThere again.

                Fine ideas and if I hadn't made the move to Business Analyst and had the techy part beaten out of me by endless burearocracy and tedious never-ending requirements gathering workshops, I would definitely take your advice.

                I think I'll make do with a particularly loud video from pornhub later.
