Petty SabotageI once put magnets on my brothers collection of ZX81 cassettes, so when he attempted to play them, they were full of errors and yet apparently undamaged. Can you beat that? Tell us your tales of petty sabotage.

childish and invisibleI work for a call center which only calls existing donors (in other words, no cold-calling). Most people are nice and if they don't want to hear from us will just say so (the fact that we are allowed to say "Would you like me to take you off the call list?" helps too).
The other day, though, I was calling at about 7.30pm and got some high-handed prick who snapped "You are calling us in the middle of our dinner" as if it's my fault that my work hours are at dinner time, and when I started to say "I'll take you off the call list, sir", hung up in my ear.
I opened his file, switched his phone number to SILENT, and in the compulsory comments field, wrote WANKER.
I don't think anyone will ever see it, but I do enjoy speculating on what the next operative will think if he ever calls us to change his phone details.
