A Jacking, or being Jacked, is the process of being visited by Jack for an extended and unexpected discussion. A Jacking is characterised by:


 * Lack of warning; Jack's approach often goes undetected
 * Extended duration
 * Unexpected timing, such as shortly after leaving the lift, during an important meeting, or while trying to work
 * Consistent intensity of questioning

Techniques for ending a Jacking
If the victim is able to work with an assistant, a Jacking can often be ended by the assistant approaching and telling them "your wife is on the phone". This has been shown to work even when the victim is not married.

Attempting to end the Jacking by moving to another location, such as into the mens' toilets, has little to no effect. However, a medical emergency such as a broken leg may successfully end a Jacking.

World record Jacking events
The longest recorded Jacking lasted 3 hours 12 minutes. (Main article: List of longest Jackings)

Reverse Jacking
The less common Reverse Jacking is a related concept in which someone unexpectedly arrives at Jack's desk, and begins a long and intense conversation on an unexpected work-related topic. This carries significant risk, as it may be converted into a true Jacking.
