Title: Headphones at work
Post by: fwtcc on August 15, 2008, 11:15:13 AM
Does anyone at time listen to delightfully inappropriate music or media otherwise while at work with headphones on?

Some times I'll be talking business with headphones on and I stop and think about the delightfully awkward silence me and my associate would be sharing if they were hearing what I am hearing.

i have the NIN entire collection (or pretty close) at work...that's pretty common most days.  gets me pumped.  i have the most anti office environment...i work for the government.  lot of these people have been here 20 years...you have to be freaking hyper-PC about everything here.

except, of course, religion.  you can wave that make the beast with two backsing flag around all you want; there's nothing wrong with that here.  it's cool to put pics of jesus everywhere on your desk, and other religious articles, but i guarantee you people would flip if i put something on my desk that just said "agnostic".  flip.  anyway, back on track...i like mitch hedberg at work, also.

i wear headphones to drown out the noise that is my co-worker babbling about inane shit.


i am generally listeing to something that would offend the ears of others. one day my VP asked me waht iw as listening to and i told him. (it was slayer at the time) he asked me to play it over the speakers and i said that i would rather not as many people around me are not into heavy metal and i didn't want to offend them. apparently the thought of me not actually wanting to offend people is funny.

I use headphones all day long and yes most of it is not appropriate for work.  I love my yahoo music account.  I can listen to all kinds of stuff from music to comedians.  I'm sure Joe Rogan wouldn't go over well without the headphones. [evil]
