Probably a lot more subtle than my solution would have been.

I was running late to work this morning. I boarded the elevator at the garage level with three other people and started up. After a few floors, the elevator stopped to let someone else on. But rather than enter the elevator, he stuck out a foot and a hand to hold the elevator door open while he finished his conversation. About 30 seconds later, the elevator began to buzz annoyingly -- the door wouldn't be open this long unless something was broken, right? Still, he held the elevator door open while he chatted with someone in the hall. So I turned around and "accidentally" dropped my briefcase on his foot. The offender yelped and jumped back into the hall. As the door closed, I bent down to retrieve my case and flashed him a small "Sorry about that" smile. Too subtle?
Yes, while Henry's recommendation would have been a little much a "S**t or get off the pot" would have sufficed. [Edit] With a Hey A&&hole to get his attention of course. [/Edit]

It would still be effective, and they would not know how to respond before you made your get away. Just the idea makes me laugh. :laugh: Thanks Henry!
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Thanks to Guy Noir I was aware of that. Had I been aware of your location, I wouldn't have suggested such a crude retaliation.

You've just admitted that breaking my toe was NOT an accident. My lawyer will be in touch.

Is he the one you were talking with in the hallway?
