knock damnit
no one in this office understands a closed office door.
it truly confuses each individual with whom i work; and im not the only one who closes my door.
when a staff member approaches a closed door, one of 4 things happens:
1: peek through the crack (provided the door is not latched) and then come in
2: peek through the crack and whisper 'hello? hello?' then come in
3: peek through the crack, whisper a few hellos, and lightly brush fingertips on the door, then come in
4: come right on in
if a volunteer comes to a closed office door, there is 98.9% guarantee that they will ignore every ettiquite about closed doors and barge right in.
what if i were wrapping their christmas goodie? or lookin at porn? or sacrificing chickens? why do i have to put a 'please knock' sign on my door to ensure i wont be interrupted? were you people raised in a barn!?

Keep a set of darts on your desk. Hang a dartboard on the back of your door so it clatters loudly whenever it's opened.
Stick a dart in the wall about eye level next to the door.
I tell ya, it works wonders.
thats a great idea. if only i would be allowed to keep it.
