    Fall down on the floor the next time he passes you, hold your jaw and say he punched you.

    Write stuff about him on the back of the jacks door.

    Or tell him to f*ck off.

    Quick nut-sack jab.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,531 ✭✭✭Little Acorn


    Just say to him politely;
    "I'm aware you may be just curious/trying to help,but I'm perfectly capable of taking care of my own work,and would appreciate if you would just let me get on with my job.
    It's what I get paid for after all,and I work better when left to my own devices."

    When he gets too close, sneeze on his face.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,412 ✭✭✭✭Ghost Train

    What exactly is stopping you from telling him to fuck off and mind his own business?

    Start a rumour that he actually fancies you


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,754 ✭✭✭Odysseus


    If someone is really getting on really getting on my wick I find simple questions do the job. With a sterner tone each time.

    Are you alright?

    Can I help you?

    Is there some you need?

    Are you sure I can't do something for you?

    Your positive I can't help you?

    Have your not your own work to doing?

    If all the above fails tell him to fu*k off as a last resort

    Manners?

    Because being in someones face all the time when they aren't wanted is a great display of being mannerly..

    You said 'come on to him' in your first post

    Thats not what i said. I'm just saying telling someone to fúck off and mind their own isn't very polite. I'm sure there's a better way for him to do that.

    Yeah, how is that being unmannerly? It more friendly is anything ;)

    Feigning affection/lust for someone is socially acceptable now?

    Get him sacked.

    You cheeky mare :)

    Personnally I think it would be easier to tell him where to go rather than get involved in mind games with him

    but I still think you should write things about the size of his mickey on the back of the jacks door :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,542 ✭✭✭Captain Darling


    Eat garlic, dont wash, take a sh1t in your drawer, clip your toe nails at your desk, drink guinness the night before work and let off squeaky smelly guinness farts all day.

    A combination of any or all of these things should get this douchebag off your back.


  • Posts: 0 CMod ✭✭✭✭ Luis Easy Beach


    "do you want something?"
    ice cold tone of voice

    should get him away

    It sounds as though the OP has already tried subtle ways for deflecting this person`s unwanted attention already. And some people need a clear and direct message that is not open to interpretation. Even if it is rude!

    Exactly. I'm polite to people who deserve it. Once or twice is a mistake, but this guy know exactly what hes doing. And because the OP has allowed him to do this he thinks he can butt in whenever he likes.


    If you aren't comfortable with confronting this man, then you need to go to your superior and tell him / her that his constant interference is effecting your work.

    Don't worry about him. He'll get bored of this. Just fu*k him that;s not matter what he thinks about you !

    Fvck him!:eek: Don`t do that OP, you`ll never get rid of him then.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 471 ✭✭pmg58


    Simple, you need to kick him in the face. Either that, or just tell him to his face that you find it uncomfortable.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,707 ✭✭✭MikeC101


    Seduce him, then have unprotected sex with him and get pregnant. Make him move out of his bachelor pad and in with you, and get started on your new life together. Plan your wedding, and then, on the day of the wedding, reveal to him that the child is not in fact his, it's his father's! (You stole a sample of his semen from the jar, obviously.) Then elope with his dad, leaving his family ruined. Dump the dad for the hot poolboy later on that week.

    If you're not female, most of the above will probably still work. I'm a little sketchy on the whole "biology" thing.

    Pm me for Chuck Norris' number.

    He said he'd sort it.
