Frankly if you don't care too much about your job (e.g. you don't mind finding another eventually), I would go straight to HR and complain about that and get it documented.

Change the sounds in Windows on the lady's computer (assuming you can). Do it as a prank...

I just printed this out and left it on her chair: :evil:

Iron Maiden - The Number Of The Beast Lyrics
"Woe to you, Oh Earth and Sea, for the Devil sends the
beast with wrath, because he knows the time is short...
Let him who hath understanding reckon the number of the
beast for it is a human number, its number is Six hundred and
sixty six."

I left alone my mind was blank
I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind

What did I see can I believe that what I saw
that night was real and not just fantasy

Just what I saw in my old dreams were they
reflections of my warped mind staring back at me

'Cos in my dream it's always there the evil face that twists my
mind
and brings me to despair

The night was black was no use holding back
'Cos I just had to see was someone watching me
In the mist dark figures move and twist
Was this all for real or some kind of hell
666 the number of the beast
Hell and fire was spawned to be released

Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised
As they start to cry hands held to the sky
In the night the fires burning bright
The ritual has begun Satan's work is done
666 the number of the beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight

This can't go on I must inform the law
Can this still be real or just some crazy dream
But I feel drawn towards the evil chanting hordes
They seem to mesmerise me ... can't avoid their eyes
666 the number of the beast
666 the one for you and me

I'm coming back I will return
And I'll possess your body and I'll make you burn
I have the fire I have the force
I have the power to make my evil take it's course

No pentagrams or demons are needed. Just snack exclusively on Devil Dogs, or other Devil's Food cake, put up a flyer for the New Jersey Devils game, and keep some handy Red Devil lighter fluid nearby. Spill something, and offer to get your Dirt Devil and sweep it up.

I'm in the same boat as you. I have no use for religion myself, and whole-heartily support other people's belief systems, until they intrude on mine. I live in Indiana, and we can't buy booze (other than in resturants) on Sundays... WTF? Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, and Kentucky border city's economies love it.... Grrr... I seriously want to start a lawsuit saying that my religion requires me to buy and consume beer in my home city on Sundays...

Well she just left for the day. Sent an email out to the whole floor saying that she was persecuted today, and she needs to go spend time with jesus. She walked around in her cube praying and speaking in "tongues". Then she started chanting you are not welcome here, get out, get out, get out. I get called in to my boss's office and he asks me if knew anything about what happened. I said, I knew about what happened, and that it is outright lunacy the way she is acting, and that she needs professional help. He then told me as I was walking out his office, 'Please don't stir her up anymore."

So, now I need to plan phase 2 for when she comes back tomorrow. Yes, I probably will get eventually "released" from my contract early, but considering they are outsourcing my job, I do not really care.

If you can't listen to 'offensive music' then clearly and repeatedly state that christian music (which she of course listens to) is offensive to you, and why you can't practice your faith even though she can.

I agree, except I do not have a "faith". I do not worship the "dark lord" or ol "grey beard of doom" in the sky. It just boils down to the mentality of the person I have to work with. Typical fanatical religious nut. They believe that only their belief system is correct, and they are placed on earth to convert/brainwash everyone else to believe what they believe. I am a tolerent guy, I feel if you want to believe in god, buddha, mohhamad, the flying spaghetti monster, or that you might one day have a chance with Jessica Alba, than by all means believe that, but understand that it is your opinion on whats right and do not shove it down anothers throat. Also, stop acting so damn condescending to others ya know? Either way, how shall I say this, satan and my goals have become temporarily aligned, as long as I might last here that is ;-)

Hey, I work at one of the top 5 banks in the nation (I think we're #1, actually) and I can't even listen to music.

Your example is the reason why.

They don't know that.


EDIT: Are you saying I'm condesending or..? I failed comprehensive reading, so I don't quite understand . Also, I don't worship Satan (anymore).

What is a "salvation tract?"

Edit: Kudos on the good work. Make sure you explain to your boss that your music can only be heard within your cubicle. Therefor she had to stick her nose in to even hear it...

Link One

Maybe I shouldn't fvck with her, god might "tell" her to rid the world of my evil or some nonsense.

To quote the late great Bill Hicks

"They say rock 'n' roll is the devil's music. Well, let's say that it is; I've got news for you. Let's say that rock'n'roll is the devil's music and we know it for a fact to be the absolutely, unequivocally true.

Boy, at least he ****** jams! Ha ha ha ha! Okay? Did you hear that correctly? If it's a choice between eternal hell and good tunes and eternal heaven and new kids on the ****** block ? I'm gonna be surfing on the lake of fire, rocking out ? high five at Satan every time I pass the ****** shore"

You know I, I found the simple life
Weren't so simple, no
When I jumped out, on that road
Got no love, no love you'd call real
Got nobody, waitin' at home

Sounds like she can't perform her job duties because of preexisting emotional/mental probems. Maybe your boss should address that.

But seriously, this is all a joke, right?

I wish it was. I don't even have a creative enough imagination to think of insanity this deep.

Complain about harrassment. Persistant attempts to press their religious vews on you constitute harrassment. I think that you actually have a case for harrassment and could, if they do nothing, legitimately file a complaint with the Dept. of Labor.
