I always made sure I had a sheet of paper in my hand when I left the shop area. When my version of Rita would try to get in my way, I’d hold up the paper and say “busy”, then keep walking away from her. Most times, I was heading for the coffee maker. Sometimes, it was actual work.

Not even Global Tel Link went to this extreme.

Maybe a wheel of Parmigiano Reggiano would work better.

Does she actually think that the trap is stronger than someone looking for coffee? She is mistaken.

Nice try, Rita, but even HR knows entrapment when they see it.

You can get coffee in the break room. Bait it with “vacation time”.

I don’t drink coffee, maybe put a cupcake or a donut there?

Someone switched the coffee for a Water Bottle and Rita wasn’t a bother for the rest of the day…

As designed, this trap won’t spring anyway.

Probably spiked coffee.

Coffee gets cold. Some have lost their affinity for donuts. A hot cinnamon roll in the trap would be infallible.

I’m pretty sure Rita is not a catch and release kind of person.

Somewhere on this planet an employer will actually consider trying this on their employees….
