i'm working and it's annoying. if you see me with my headphones on i'm in the middle of the a 2 hour podcast and it will be tedious to pause and/or rewind 18 seconds because you started saying something to me that was boring and some throwaway work-related aside about how you dont like your client or something

seriously, i know you dont get this but the youtube video i'm listening to is important to me and more important than anything you are going to say, i practically fucking guarentee it so just stop interupting

im serious, these spotify playlists took me like 11 and a half hours to organize and i really like this song and it was just crescendoing and now you've fucking interupted it so you could tell me it's time for you to stretch or whatever, seriously, stop talking to me I DONT CARE! OK??? IM SORRY, YES IM MEAN IM A MISANTHROPE I JUST WANT MY AUDIO TREATS STOP TALKING TO ME LEAVE ME LAOOOOOONE!!!!!

thank you niko-dunk

You can’t organize your workplace if you don’t talk to your coworkers

I have these headphones with some clear voice shit that uses microphones on theoutside and plays them talking through the speakers its pretty cool. People leave me alone because having headphones on makes them feel weird even if you're talking to them and can obviously hear then.

just wear open-back headphones so you can hear people talk and they can hear your music + fart joke podcasts

[–] krolden@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No just play everything through a Bluetooth speaker from five below with volume limiting disabled

Real me at work vibes

These podcasts, video game music and 90s/early 2000s rap/R&B playlists ain't gonna listen to themselves

Then when I take off my headphones because I think I'm missing some important work news or goss, it's just inane chatter
