I'm not an audiophile by any means, but at least you should invest in some quality headphones. I put off getting a good pair for years, until I got a decent pair of sony v6's. I'm thinking of getting a pair of AKGs next when I have money to spend.

I actually agree, they suck virulent alpaca nads


My ATF cheap headphones, $20 and they sound great (although the person sitting next to you is definitely gonna hear 'em, they aren't engineered to be super-quiet)

It's a cell phone company. I have heard from those who've worked there for years that they've banned things before, and just kind of let it go, made exceptions...banned them again...let it go, made exceptions.

And it's no pens because they think that we're going to write down account information and steal it. No ****. Since the ban, people have asked if they could bring in etch a sketches, magna-doodles...and the company isn't quite sure.

They did tell us we're not allowed to play a team-wide poker game. Not because it's a security breach, but because it's distracting.

One girl on my team has taken to making cats out of pipe cleaners. They're actually pretty awesome. I just try to read. There was a period of several hours where there was around eight minutes between calls, my average call being a minute and a half, so I got a lot read.

I tend to have these on my ears at almost any moment I'm not at work.



Sennheiser HD201s. I even wear a light, semi-see-thru and impractical (for warmth) hoodie over my t-shirt when I'm jogging, so I can pull the hood up and keep them in place.

The sound quality is pretty mediocre, honestly, but way better than earbuds. And they're actually quite comfy.

Yeah well the thing is I can never really wear headphones in the house. I've hooked up a wireless doorbell for my sis, the bell is beside her bed and the speaker is in my room, so when she needs me she pushes the bell and I can hear it up here. If I was wearing headphones chances are I wouldn't hear it. Even if I did, I'd be so concentrating on not missing the bell sound that I wouldn't really enjoy my music.

So the only time I use phones is when I'm out, and despite the trend I've seen developing over the last few years for big "mickey mouse" style headphones, I wouldn't wear those outdoors. So buds are what I use.

I want some headphones. I've wanted some for a long time really, so I really need to pull my finger out.

I'm with Trollheart though when I say I will never, ever, ever wear headphones outside. I'm not a douchebag and/or anywhere near cool enough to pull it off.

EDIT: While jogging - OK, I get that one. That one makes sense. I don't jog though, so that aint an issue for me.

I always have my headphones one me, I love listening to music on car rides, and on my lunch breaks, and while walking to places.

I use the word douchebag in jest in all honesty. I think some people do look like douchebags when wearing massive headphones outside but it suits some more than others and I wouldn't do it. Earphones are fine for me. I would like some headphones to use in the house though.
