Do you have access to

(a) The work CD player
(b) A death metal CD

MadSleighLady · 19/12/2012 10:43

Lead your colleagues in a rousing chorus of Mull of Kintyre. Now that is a bloody earworm. You won't hear another bar of Buble all day.

BrevilleTron · 19/12/2012 10:47

Good call!
I would settle for 'wombling merry Christmas '
I shall attempt to gain access...

On the plus side Bubbles keeps getting interrupted by the zone calls so it sounds like this
Buble "silver bells oh silver be"CHASSIS ONE"lls those lovely sil"ZONE EIGHT TRACK STOP"ver bells

Best megamix he's ever had!

The last place I worked in had 'Pan Pipes at Christmas' played on repeat from the middle of fucking November right through the festive season, The same friggin CD.....13 songs.....on repeat.....6 days a week.......9 hours a day......for 6 freaking weeks.....AAAARRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHH. I think I would rather listen to MB than that shit but you still have my sympathies. Can you get some sort of doctors note saying the exact tone of his voice is causing some sort of inner ear imbalance and you will have to be signed off for 2 months if it continues? .

BrevilleTron · 19/12/2012 10:57

Hmmm now that's a possibility
I've noticed we have run out of ear plugs as there seem to be a lot of 'horn testing' going on

Failing earplugs I shall coerce a nice DHL driver to repeat his 'accident' from last week.

He backed a truck into the fire alarm smash glass thing. Result 45 minutes out!

Oh god, you poor thing!

Last year when I was paying at a till in TK Maxx one of the assistants came running down and said they had at last got a new playlist and everyone cheered. They'd been listening to the same thing day in and day out for weeks and were at the end of their tethers.

I like Mickey Bubbles now, despite slandering him for being a box-shitting axe murdery stalker type in previous years.
Maybe you'll grow to love him?

PersonalClown · 19/12/2012 11:16
by the Trans Siberian Orchestra.

Nice mix of metal/rock and traditional Christmas. They can't argue!!!

TeeElfOnTeeShelf · 19/12/2012 11:19

If you can't get DHL driver to cooperate, you could ask one of the cleaners to do what ours did a few years ago.

She managed to place a mop in the exact right spot for it to fall and hit the fire alarm, 'twas brilliant.

BrevilleTron · 19/12/2012 11:23

Sue. My beloved BIL has just texted asking me to call him urgently

He was in tesco and wanted me to hear the lovely music
Guess who?!

Don't think I'll ever love mr Buble

The lads have told me that last Christmas some twat joker wired up the alarm system for all the zones (the call for help buttons) to play songs
So instead of "zone 7 " it played the intro to Slade
All zones (10)
By the 3rd hour the track stopped because nobody would push the buttons as they were sick to death of it!

I watched him on Graham Norton and he was really sweet. So I don't hate him now, and have limited the boxshittingstalkerybastard comments to nearly none.
Not sure I could listen to him on loop though...

rockinaroundthebadtasteflump · 19/12/2012 11:31

He seems like a nice enough person, but I can't stand his Christmas album.

Just come in when the fecking music does already!!!

BrevilleTron · 19/12/2012 11:37

He seems to have been stopped

Oh no wait
He's back on.

It's all covers. And I'm gonna take a blowtorch to Frosty the Snowman if I can locate the smiley carrot-nosed icy tosser!
Have located myself down at the Water Test so drowning him out as best I can.

Ah the joys of car factories.

FFS!!
I am now going to take a sledgehammer to the Tannoy

The jumped up weaselly self satisfied sickly voiced shiny suited TWAT

Realise I'm outing myself BUT FOR FLAMING NORA LAND ROVER GET A NEW FUCKING CD!!!!

Is this not a violation of your human rights? Could you not threaten an expensive court case for compensation?
