Dont know any close talkers, but we have a Meth Mouth dude at work thats a screamer. He gets started and if you try to interject anything into his conversation he just gets louder and louder. Smokes like a tar kiln so he smells really bad too.
Teeth looks like he's been eating green road kill with the gravel still in it.
AND I gotta sit on the same toilet!!!ARRRGHH!!!
I've got to start carrying some DOW scrubbing bubbles to work.

I can't stand this sort of thing. From time to time it happens to me. When it does, I tell them politely but firmly to back up cause only my wife, kids, and mama are allowed to get that close to me.

Usually only takes once, but if it's required a second time I'm a lot more firm then. Never has taken three times either after the second time. thumbup


Jesus... I hope you know Him personally like I do.

It is a cultural issue. In western cultures the standard is 18-24 inches. In middle eastern cultures the standard is < 12 inches. Another reason they make me uncomfortable.

I work with a guy who never let's you finish a sentence without jumping in to try to finish for you. When you try to explain something that involves more than one step, he takes off on step 1 without listening to the rest of the instructions.

The other day, the boss man told him " why don't you shut the f@(k up, stand the f@(k still, and let me f@(king talk?" .

He got the hint. laugh

I've kissed Dad on the cheek and my brother will rub his face and tell him he needs to shave! It's hilarious. He gets it and has gotten a lot better since he retired. He really does come by it honest though. You see it with folks who have worked in really noisy environment for a long time.

Guy that goes to our church has the worst reputation for invading your personal space while talking, EVERYBODY knows and laughs about it. He'll stand in front of you and put his hand on your shoulder, and his elbow is bent, it's not even the distance of a straight arm!!! LOL

We had a LOUD talker at work
He came into the room while we were listening to a Alabama football game on the radio. The guy sitting by the radio would turn up the volume a little and the guy would get a little louder. This went on until the radio was full volume and the guy was screaming to keep up! He finally realized what was going on and got pissed and walked out of the room! We all were in the floor laughing!

Had a boss in the Air Force that was a close talker. Stopped talking to me close the day I congratulated him on the incredible Chia Pet he had growing out of his nostrils.

The best way I've found to deal with face talkers or side talkers is to get closer to them. That really throws them off.

I had a customer in here a few months back that was a side talker. No matter which way I turned he would adjust to be on my side. At one point, his upper arm and mine were as one.

I tolerated it for a while in hopes to sell him something but once I realized that he was wasting my time, game on. I waited for him to lean on me again and when he did, I put my arm around him and walked to the next machine he was wanting to look at.

He got the point.
