Well then, it does sound like they knew you were upset with them. I
suppose one other thing you could have done before taking action was to
warn them you were going to do so if it didn't stop -- but then everyone
would have known who did it.

Oh, hell yes.
I asked and it would improve -- for an hour or so.
After a while my requests just netted an impatient
gesture of dismissal. The offender got way more than
three strikes. Strangely (yeah, right...) the offender
never seemed to carry on loud "private" phone conversations
while the boss was around.
