    Ok, fair enough, but that doesn't help much as far as the singing is concerned.

    Why can't I be applicable like John? - Me, April 2011

    Get his attention. Tell him that on some of the notes he sounds like Justin Beiber.

          How do you tell one of your cow-orkers to stop playing music and singing at his desk - WITHOUT being labelled a rude, antisocial asshole. Yes, I DO have headphones on already, but it doesn't help. :mad:

            just do it. I have been known to hum a tune or two while working on code. One of the best guys I'v ever worked with looked over and said, "Dude, nothing personal but the hummming is killing my concentration." I had no problem with shutting up - mutual respect.

              Can't beat them, join them. Ask for a duet.

                            If you already don't like him just stand up, loudly declare "I cannot work with that moron singing all the time" and flounce straight out of the office. I'd love to see the shocked looks on the others faces.

                                  If you already don't like him just stand up, loudly declare "I cannot work with that moron singing all the time" and flounce straight out of the office. I'd love to see the shocked looks on the others faces.

                                      Send him a link to The Lounge with some text saying there's an interesting thread that might be of use to him :-D

                                          How do you tell one of your cow-orkers to stop playing music and singing at his desk - WITHOUT being labelled a rude, antisocial asshole. Yes, I DO have headphones on already, but it doesn't help. :mad:

                                          Can you hear the music (i.e. does he not have headphones on) or just his singing?
