It's how I survived as well, but that just means I'm cancelling out all the 'collaboration'.

They don't necessarily, many prefer music through speakers and not headphones, or silence

I can’t have music on while I work, especially not in headphones, or I just start listening to it, so this is not a universal solution.

I rarely wish pain on others, but for you, I wish migraines caused by pressure on the sides of your head, like some people have. Maybe a lesson will be learned.

To wish pain on someone for such an innocent comment on my end comes off rather bad for you. Just saying. Plus I don't wear over ear headphones, because I do get tension headaches, the newest Airpods however, are in ear and imo have the best active noise cancelling ever produced in a consumer product, so no need for ear cups.

I can take closed cans only for a short period of time.
