Sauce, Yeah, I mean they played music. It's a restaurant,
but every hour, every hour on the hour, they played
Cheesburn Paradise, and every four songs was a jummy Jimmy
Buffett song.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
So did that room morale on the hour?

Speaker 3 (00:50):
When you'd hear the no, we'd be like, oh cool, No,
Like that's how we counted down. So we're all worked, Okay,
that's the We're like, oh wait, okay, so another hour's
done already. That means we have like three more hours left.

lady who I love, by the way, big Elton John fan.
So she just plays hits, which at least that was
fine because it's enough on there.

When I worked at the tanning salon a room morale
because girls a chained station and they would put on
like coffee shops sound like didn't meute that one?

Speaker 2 (01:16):
Okay? And then listen.

I mean people would come in and would complain because
they thought that it was like ruining their tan oh interesting,
like it's so relaxing that it's making me mad.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
They're saying bad music is obviously subjective. But if you
don't like the holidays, for instance, in your workplace puts
on holiday music, yes, that could probably get a little
bit annoying.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
Yeah, I would suppose during the holidays customers would always
complain about holiday music.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
All the time. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Are they saying that some places are actually creating quiet
zones where employees can go and escape the actual noise overall?

Speaker 3 (01:47):
That's probably good though some people is really need quiet
to work though undred percent.
