Wearing cheap, bad earbuds is practically the same as playing the music from your phone speakers

I can still hear it. It's just as annoying. The only difference is that you're pumping the volume right into your ears and damaging your hearing. Buy some better earbuds and you'll be able to hear your tunes without me hearing them too.

When I'm trying to work, I don't want to listen to the podcast the coworker right get away from me is listening to.
