A tenuous story.
It involves wrecking someone's afternoon and phones, but just the regular kinds of phones. It's an office game I devised in the library known as "phone tennis". However, under the right conditions you can play it in pretty much any office. It's for 2 players, plus a referee.

What you need:

- An office
- At least two desk phones, preferably at opposite ends of the office
- One, and only one person in that office (the victim)
- Two assailants who can dial directly to any phone in that office
- Somewhere to view the person in the office where they can't see you.

Basically, phone ringer number one dials that person's phone, and when they pick up, hang up. Player 2 then phones the other phone and when they pick up, hang up. This continues back and forth until the person gives up, and the last person to have their phone answered wins!

If I was paid to piss people off at work I'd be a fucking millionaire.

I must disagree
If you were paid to piss people off at work, you'd be a manager (and probably quite well paid too).
