Wireless.

I spent half to 3/4 of my workday on conference calls. After being snagged by corded headphones or ear buds for the past decade, I finally broke down and bought a cheap pair of ear buds for the sole purpose of attending these calls.

$25 at Target that was well spent.

I don’t know how long these JLAB GoAirPop earbuds will last but I am off to a good start with them this morning. This sound quality is very tinny and fairly hollow sounding but I’m fine with that for these calls. It keeps me awake.

For those wondering, yes I have other wireless ear buds and headphones, but I don’t want to sync them with my work issued laptop. I function best with “this technology for work and that technology for personal use”, so these little ear buds fit my expectation just fine.

Motivator.

Either someone is quite happy to be spending time with the humans today or someone wants to inhale the remains of lunch on my breath.
