Came back from a week at the the MGP to be greeted with Smooth Country Radio playing in the office from 08:30 to 17:30 daily. I have previously made it known that I find it difficult to concentrate with any radio never mind the constant depressing drivel churned out on this channel, which is, unfortunately, liked and sung along to now and then by my two colleagues. I'm about to lose it and give the alexa a taste of my size 10 steel toecaps. any suggestions other than sabotage as there will only be one suspect?
Cowboy boots, definitely not. I don't care if its Radio 2, 3, 4 or anything else I don't want to be subjected to constant noise throughout the day. Needless to say the custom of working through the dinner hour, whilst eating sandwiches at my desk has gone out the window and I disappear for the full 60 minutes.
Music is wholly subjective, thus I wear airbuds at work so I can enjoy my music without annoying my colleagues. I have other ways of annoying my colleagues. Just being there is the main one.
An old friend of mine was working at the East Grinstead Dagenham bodyshop branch many moons ago, the fools were playing some nonsense, so he sprayed the ghetto blaster with the powerwasher...happy days when it blew up. For me i like Planet Rock but you'll a DAB radio setup for reception..
I worked in an office where they were all a lot younger than me and they had to have the radio on some modern channel. Every song sounds the same as the last which was generally some bird screaming as loud as she could. I found being deaf and wearing hearing aids a bonus as I just switched them off. Couldn't hear a thing.
If anybody dared to put a radio on near me I would be straight around to them to let them know how inconsiderate and selfish they were being. “It’s not a bloody holiday camp…you’re here to work…” Call me old fashioned… Fuck em.
Broadcast music at work is only allowed with a medley of Andy Williams Christmas songs on the last day before the break...
i took the radio out the workshop a month or two ago. it did my fecking head in. in previous workshops it has caused full on punch-ups. we now have a Bluetooth speaker and a day each with spotify. the atmosphere is superb. everything from death metal to acoustic blues turned up to 11. should of done it years ago.
Our neighbours have had builders in for 2 months, radio pumping out some indistinct shite. Doing my fucking head in.
