Make it into a game. Bet someone that you can get them to hum or whistle 3 tunes during a day by whistling or humming them first yourself. Apart from winning the bet, you will make the annoying noise maker think twice in the future.

When I did my time there was around 18 in the toolroom, and a couple of lines of songs would be ringing out all day lol

My dear old Dad used to sing a few lines when walking down to lift his brick line up for the next corse..

I have been humming a modified version of "London's Burning" (my glove is burning) on site while welding some steels in the full sun as it was so ****ing hot lol

Old farmer I used to help set his trousers on fire with the disc cutter the one time ..and his son lost a shirt and some of his chest wig when the fag he though was put out ignited in his front shirt pocket

I retired today - can’t see me ever going back to an office for work again. Strange places - the “workplace”. I’m going fishing instead…
