Last place I was at, I worked nights pretty much solo. If my wireless earbuds died, sure, Iâd play it out loud. I was the only one in the building. About an hour before anyone else started getting in, if my ear buds still hadnât charged enough I turned it off.
Partially to be respectful, and partially because some people get offended by metal even if they canât understand the lyrics. And I mean, yeah, some bands can have unprofessional lyrics. I get it having been in the working world so long.
I feel this. There was one time where I was playing metal over my speakers, but I was the only one in the office and I was not playing it loudly. After a while a security guard was doing rounds and asked me âwhat the hellâ I was listening to. âCattle Decapitation,â I said, and they wrinkled their nose like someone shat in the trashcan and went on about how they canât how anyone would like âthat stuffâ â I shrugged and said me neither and got back to my work.
Some office environments too.
