It's time to sabotage your own desk to the folly of the day shift. Is it possible for you to place a fake keyboard where they wouldn't see the real one? You could rig it to shock them when they depress the keys by lining the inside of the keyboard with a conductive metal (tin foil "might" work) and then piercing the individual keys with straightened out staples. When the keys go down, assuming the individual is grounded they'll get a shock. Use batteries as the power source to ensure it's only a mild shock, and of course don't plug in the rigged keyboard to the computer.

i was thinking somrthing more along the lines of a whole lot of superglue and a diffrent chair and keybopard...mouse etc....tacks hidden in the back of the chair and maybe something lke itch powder strategicly placed...

lol i like that one....problem with that tho, is the floor here is pretty....wide open. no one would believe that its a legitimate...."leavings" plus, i think fornicating on the floor is a no no.

I know one person that keeps people form sitting at her desk by using a chair with a messed up arm rest where the cushioning came off. She figures that she can tolerate the messed up arm rest, but other people won't want to.

yea...i dunno. thats one of my biggest gripes. is ill leave my shift at midnight, theres only 1 shift that sits here othetr then me, and thats the 6am to 3pm shift. EVERY day i come in and my chair is either missing, or the armrests destroyed. and i know its the same chair because ive put red tape on the height adjuster. so whoever sits her mauls the armrests. im like wtf??? i mean holy cow people....have some respect for your workplace! or at least respect the place were other people have to work. i cant stand destroyed chairs....drives me sane i tell ya.....sigh...whens my break. im taking a trip to the stairwell to chill out. must...get....away...from ...crazy work place of death!... 😈

Like really it is only a damn chair, and the reason it is called hoteling is b/c u share a desk with someone..get over it..it is public property, not yours,so suck it up princess, and if it is really that big of a concern, then go on a team that does not hotel, or find a new job..Like how old are u?really..time to grow up a bit and learn to deal with s***..things do not always go your wau, and ya have to learn to deal with it..

a moment of highscool is flashing back to me, grade 9 math class, kid didnt like the chair because it was not the right one. he hunted high and low throughout the rest of the classroom for "his" chair, we made fun of him becuase my gawd its just a chair, i mean get over it, so many people work in this place through out an average day and you could only imagine the amount of people who sit on these chairs. its NO big deal. anyways like i've been told before, cant teach an old dog new tricks. hence the new trick would be to get a new chair, or OTHER chair.

ok you guys are missing the point big time. its not the fact that people take chairs whatever. there is one chair for each and every desk here. my problem is the fact that every single flippin day i show up and there is no chair at my desk. wich means i have to hunt one down. and when i do, and leave for lunch (30 minutes) its either gone or destoryed. arm rests hacked up, or the back is busted. i work 8 and a 1/2 hours a day. all i ask is a chair that is in decent condidion without having to spend 15 minutes tracking one down. thats only half the point. i have a few signs on my walls...for some reason people constantly deface them, draw on them rip them take them down....why? have some god damned respect for the other people you work with....

First of all, Greasey, I don't think you are in any place to be telling people what to do. Here's a tip - there's this thing catching on nowadays - yeah its called SHOWERING. Have you heard of it? Clearly not. If you feel the need to utter detrimental comments about myself and others, have a spine (and a bath first) and do it in person. You're a sissy who has spaz attacks about his CHAIR. Seriously, grab a life, and some balls and stop posting retarded temper tantrums on here. Whenever I see you whining like a little bitch - the only thing running through my mind is "Somebody put a tent over this f*cking circus." Always a pleasure.

Listen up Buddie you freaking out about nothing!!! I have come in the mornings many times and my chair is missing, well I don't start to yell 😲 and swear 👿 , I just go and grab another chair, whats the point in getting all worked up about a chair. Now I do understand about the arms getting wrecked but you can't stop it so you are going to have to deal with it. So you need to suck it up Buddie and stop being such a baby!! 🤣 🤣 🤣

Its ok. When you get home, mom will understand, then you can grab a bah bah and take a nap. 🤣

Wow, I've been slacking hardcore. I haven't replied because well .. to be honest .. I couldn't be bothered. I have wasted too much time trying to talk some sense into Mr Rep1of2000 (by the way I think its pretty pompous of you to name yourself Rep #1.) and I have decided to give up, throw in the towel (fighting the urge to make a reference to hygiene of lack thereof in this center) and just let him have his immature rants. So go for it Rep1of2000. Put as all to shame with your rambling. After all, I have nothing better to do with my 10 mins of queue time.

a good way to get people from sitting in your seat is to put up a sign that says THIS SEAT IS RESERVED FOR MEDICAL REASONS a few people in my center, who has medical issues, have reserved there seat this way
