Unintentional eavesdropping

The act of overhearing co-workers talking through a wall. No sneaking needed, just sit back in your chair and listen.

Jim: So the rumor around the office is that Steve is getting layed off.

Joe: Where'd you hear that?

Jim: Oh just through the wall during my daily "Unintentional Eavesdropping" break.
