We went en masse to the supervisor and told him we were walking if the problem person wasn't dealt with; it worked, but of course, everyone has to be in agreement.

Still, if you could get a group together to talk to him, so he'd know it wasn't just you, he might listen. That has got to be very frustrating and it must be costly in productivity, too. You could point that out, but that gets tricky as he could turn it into thinking you others are not capable of doing your jobs.

Is there anyone who is chummy with these two women who could explain to them how disruptive they are? Maybe they could be embarrassed into shutting up? Does their work get done?

Good luck,
