I got a lot of this kind of thing today, except it wasn’t headphones it was an earpiece for a two way radio, and it was designed to not stand out… So I kinda asked for it.

But then people would rudely relay important information on the radio with no regard for the conversation I’m having; and since the other person has no idea I just got earblasted with someone’s voice, they keep yapping on about their insignificant drivel and I miss half the conversation because of the priority messages rudely coming through the radio.

I was volunteering, doing communications at a local fairground… This weekend it was a renaissance faire. Fun.
