Re: People playing their music at work
I've been pretty lucky. Most of my co-workers are considerate about this type of thing, both in this job and in prior jobs. They'll play music but you can't hear it unless you're in their office.
I have, however, had very loud neighboring-office co-workers who have phone conversations that aren't meant to be public, but they're so loud that they are.

This is a ludicrous story.tothebeach08 wrote:Then I have to leave my office, my Ipod continues to play.....when I return to my office there sits my boss waiting for me and what is playing over the radio ....Get Back Mother F....you don't know me like that. Nice huh. Try having a serious conversation with someone in control of your annual review after that one.

Yeah... I really don't want or need to hear my fatass co-worker making plans with her sister to eat her tub of ice cream and watch "Beaches" because her boyfriend broke up with her.TimeForGuinness wrote:I'm in a cube farm...so every conversation is heard.JL21 wrote:I've been pretty lucky.

Jerry: She calls me this morning and tells me she's upset I didn't console her. I mean it was "Beaches" for god's sake. What, what do you do in a situation like that?
George: Where were you?
Jerry: I was sitting on the chair. She was over here on the couch.
George: Well you know, if you were sitting right next to her you'd have to console her no matter what.
Jerry: Of course.
George: When you're talking about a movie like "Beaches", moving from the chair to the couch , . . . that's quite a voyage.
Jerry: yeah,

I work with a couple of guys who seem to have Voice Modulation Syndrome. They sit over 50' away from me, around 2 corners, and I can still hear every word they say on the phone. They practically yell.
