This has been an ongoing issue for me in general. I always have a podcast going in my ears. I've had jobs beef with me over it. I let them know that's how I roll. I have one earbud in and can hear what is going on around me. Wifey is just stupid with it. She'll walk up on me at my PC with headphones on and start an entire convo. I'll just be looking at her for a few seconds before I take off my headphones, explain to her for the millionth time how headphones work and that she will have to repeat everything she just said.
Why won't she learn?
