Jovial Dick = Rush Limbaugh
I did read the part about where it probably wouldn’t be a good idea to just yell and swear at the guy, but that is what I think I might have resorted to. Well maybe not the yelling, but swear in a low toned hiss! And I almost NEVER swear.
I agree with others that think he may have some sort of a mental or social problem. And I have worked with a couple people like that. I finally did go off on one guy whose problem was constant bragging. He was actually an assistant manager just above me at a restaurant. I was also an A.M. but was pretty new. That day I was doing his work, and mine, as well as washing dishes because the dishwasher boy was so far behind, and the guy stood there and bragged about 10 things to me while watching me work. I lost it. It was probably the last time I was nasty to anyone, and it happened in 1994, so it sticks with me! But it worked. It shut him up and he never did all his weird bragging around me again.
Well I’m sorry but I must disagree with you most strenuosly on this.
Perhaps a snap quick to the testicles followed by an armlock would be a better course of action to follow.
If one is occupied with an important telephone conversation, one should simply vigorously sieze him by the testicles. [/Fairbairn]
The problem with this is that the victi…er, subject will bend forward, moving their mouth closer to me, while they scream in pain. This will increase the volume throughput to my customer and result in too many questions and too much inconvenience.
Better one swift punch in the groin. That way they go down and preferably, away from me.
I like that - wave him over like you have something to tell him, then POW! Right in the buckeyes!
