[Spock] - do you ever listen to Progressive Rock? |

[+] for easy-deploy, disguisable, pressure sensitive alarm devices. |
|
| |
Nice. My boss has an unusually ninja-like lightness of foot, even for a librarian. |
|
| |
But this pad would alert you every time somebody walked past, which could be hundreds of times a day in a busy office. |
|
| |
I would favour a "chip" solution: break into your boss' house in the middle of the night, and implant a chip in his/her arm (having obviously first rendered them unconscious with a swift blow to the head from the stapler you stole from the stationery cupboard the day before) which would trigger the alarm you have hidden by the entrance to your office/cubicle. If you could also configure it so that the chip would trigger the anti-theft alarms in all major shops then it would be doubly worthwhile. |
|
| |
An RFID tag in the boss's shoe would do the trick (or in their neck/arm/ass if you really must slice the bastard) in conjunction with a discreet proximity alarm. Alternatively feed your pressure sensor through an AND gate with a sensor set at the height of your boss (maybe infra red or something) to reduce the number of false positives. |

I just trip him, by stringing a thin monofilament wire outside my cubicle. "Samir, have you finished filling out those TPS rep-AAAAAaahhhhhhhhhhh!" |
|
| |
Our boss has a little bell around his neck. |
|
| |
Surely you don't have a boss...Sir? |
|
| |
[salachair] Geez, what did your boss do to you? |
|
| |
Just add some adaptive programming to the chip in the rug, with pressure and step distance input. Press a button to alert the rug every time your boss walks by, and eventually, it'll know which steps are the boss's. |
|
| |
Of course, when he comes stumbling into the office, disheveled from an all night binge of coke and hookers, your rug is going to be clueless. |
|

I actually like my boss, which makes it harder for me to
waste his money by playing with soda or watching trailers.
Interestingly, there is a ligh positioned in the hallway
which creates a shadow when someone walks towards my
office, which causes me to press one of the expose
buttons. You know if you press shift+expose it does it
slowly? I also once convinced my boss that AIM was a
special note taking system... |

| |
That link stole about an hour of my life. So far. |
|
| |
We have a boss alarm, a nosy one who's already picked our brains to the dry bones. |
