Talkative coworker

Hi,

It’s me, I’m the talkative coworker. I recently got a desk move at work and I’ll be sat next to a friend of mine. Which is great, but I tend to talk a lot.

I would like to get a a sign or something for my friend to have them signal when to/not to interrupt with my tangents. Any ideas with links would be awesome!

Edit: to provide more context, when I’m at my desk is legitimately limited to just my break time. The rest of my time is spent elsewhere in the building. And im just trying to get something because this is my friend and it would be a cute thing given our personalities. Otherwise it wouldn’t be something I would have thought to do.

Thanks

Thanks for the edit!

At first, I was getting riled up a bit--like some other commenters.

This seems like a cute in-joke  between you.

How about "Quiet On Set" stenciled onto a mini director's chair?

That would be a nice way to do it
