I'm a receptionist, so I have my own desk and computer and telephone. One of the guys I work with, who has HIS own desk and computer and telephone, has been talking on MY phone for about 10 minutes. When the phone rings, I have to get up from my desk and go into another room to answer it! And he's talking about personal crap.
Grrrrrrr.....

If it's a weird person that brings in many animals: Tell him you'll chop up the next animal he brings into the office, dead or alive, if he doesn't get off the phone.
Normal person: 1. Go use his phone. 2. Hang up your phone that he's using. 3. Tell your boss that he's using your phone for non-work related reasons.

My job is similar..... I'm an administrative assistant..I still work on loans, but I do have to answer the phone..... I get annoyed when someone sits at my desk for any reason at all.... I don't like them to talk on my phone at all... and for 10 minutes?? That would be..."Get the hell up and go to your own desk!"

Yes,I would definitely be annoyed! Esp when hes the type to take over your desk by sitting on it! Who does he think he is? If it really bothers u that much,tell your supervisor so he can get his a** in trouble!

I used to do reception (pre-kids) and yes it was extremely annoying. I find when the person sits on your desk (not your chair) while doing that is even worse!

Yes it would be annoying but a better question should be why is he doing this in the first place. He could just be an a** or maybe he wants you to hear about his personal life ( i.e. he likes you or wants to make you jealous).

I truly sympathize with my fellow receptionist/secretaries...you could try stapling his pants to your desk (heeheehee). Or flick some rubber bands at him. Salt in his coffee?? ( I pity my own co-workers today!! lol)

Staple his fingers to the desk

I think I would accidently on purpose hang up the phone when I got up and my hand slip down on the dissconnect button... That is just pure rude.

Glue the receiver to the phone unit. That'll teach him.

Ohhhhh.... yes! I think you should wrestle the phone from his hands, beat him about the head and neck with it and then send him packing!
