Why do people ...

Deleted User

SHOUT loudly on phones on public transport/in public places and even put them on LOUD SPEAKER!!!!

Why is there LOUD music in every place I go to eat and/or have a coffee even if it's a nice little countryside place like the one I went into today.  Who wants it?  The customers or the staff?

Over to you  ...

A moan a day is the well balanced way.

  • People who do video calls on loudspeaker on a train should have a special place in hell Debbie.

    I also once sat in an airport departure lounge waiting anxiously to see if a late flight was going to happen and had to endure a couple watching an Indian movie on an iPhone with full loudspeaker. Luckily I didn’t lose the plot.

    I never travel without my noise cancelling headphones now.

    It must have been a good film.

    Seriously, though, UGH!!

    I'm after some noise cancelling headphones as earplugs fall out of my ear holes.

    You may have recommended some on the thread I made about them, so sorry if I am repeating myself, but what would you suggest with regard to not playing music? ie I'm hoping for a diminishing of sound.

    Actually this reminds me.

    The day I went to receive my assessment results I had to wait in a waiting room. The psychologist was a few minutes late, which is always a trigger for me, and there was one other person in the waiting room (a father waiting on his kid) and he was watching some noisy video in his phone.

    Between waiting for my result, the psychologist being late and this guy, I was quite highly strung by the time I got my result. The psychologist laughed about it confirming there was no doubt about the diagnosis.
