Oh, and the two or three people nearby who leave their cell-phones unattended and with the rings turned out full-blast in their cubicles, who constantly get calls whenever they're away from their desks. The people that call don't seem to leave messages, either...the phones will ring 5 or 6 times, stop for a minute, and then ring 5 or 6 times again. This will continue until the owners of the phones get back to their cubicles.

Throw it in the john. I did this to someone once for this very reason. He looked everywhere until someone told him where it was. He was not happy. He never found out who did it though.

An alternate, less dickish move is to simply turn the phone off. I do this quite a bit for a guy that works here. He tried to give me crap about it but I told him why I was doing it.

I do like Jake's idea though.
