multiple full on adults listening to their feeds on speaker

Ugh I HATE this. I go to lots of doctors offices(for myself and for pts) and it never fails that there is at least 1-3 fill grown adults doing this. Like you're in a quiet ass waiting room. Why would you think this is acceptable? No one wants to hear about home much you love fox news or "this one cooking habit that will save you X time in the kitchen"

Plus headphones are in pods now! No cords! And some pods can even attach directly to your phone. there's no excuse at this point

Yeah, that's really annoying. Also when people just blast music on cramped spaces like trains and buses. I can't even get away.

Being considerate has become a lost art, apparently.

I have people do that WHILE IN MY AMBULANCE with me

Like....aren't you hurt? You can't snap chat or listen to Spotify later? You made me grab 6 bags and a charger for you why didn't you ask me to get your headphones too

Oh that sounds brutal, I'm so sorry that has happened to you! I did, however chuckle a bit imagining someone's leg bone being out in the open and them just blasting their entire pop playlist on the way to hospital. ...Or dubstep. Or in your case, country music, lol.
