Work it

What do you listen to while you work?

Work is behind me. Retirement ahead. When I did work, there was no hold music to keep me company.

Today’s workplace is different from the one I inhabited. Headsets were not the fashion then.

You worked in relative silence, the tap tap tap of your computer keys broke in; colleagues would stop by your desk with questions; there might be a meeting to interrupt your morning’s quiet.

I tune into 60s rock or my Carole King Pandora feed when I wander about taking pictures or inspiration. I wear a pair of earphones to keep my listening private.

Times change. It’s good to keep up.
