Do you have to sing at work?!

Haha! That's terrible. I used to have an office mate who sings his heart out like he's a rockstar or something while at work but the thing is he is often out of tune. What I did then is I put my headset on me at the start of work until I finish my job and that gave me some quiet time and peace of mind.

I just hope that she sang well enough to please me! lol! Yeah, I really dont mind other people playing songs from the laptops and all, but it would be best for them to just use a earphone and listen to their stuff alone. Some are so insensible and does not think about the people around them. It would be good if you are not really busy, but hey if you have your hands (and head) full, not a perfect timing!

hello friend! i like to sing songs so much in work or any where.music is a power.i think when we feel so tired that time music gives us power in our body.i really like to listen music anywhere and also sing songs. thanks a lot.

Next time when she play those song do one thing you too join with her and maybe this time she would get annoyed and stop playing those songs after sometimes and yeah do one thing sing bad so that she get frustrated and i am sure that within few days she might stop playing those songs

HEHE i'm actually pretty similar to your colleague. You see i love singing and will sing to any song that's on lol. Actually most of my friends are that way. If we aren't gossiping or laughing, we're definitely humming our favorite songs lol.

I'm actually one of those people who can't work well without music. Whenever i'm working there has to be music playing and most of the time i can't help but to sing along with it. I believe it helps remove stress, well, for me..lol. Just put earphones or something to lessen the noise or if you can try to talk to her about it, goodluck.. :)

I think no matter where you work there will always be people that will irritate you, and sometimes the more they know they do the worse they will try to irritate you even more. When it comes to singing, it usually does not bother me if they are a Good singer and they are not doing it really loud. But if someone is off key, or distracting I or someone else will usually say something for sure.

Hello there Sweet_pea. :) Wow, I think your officemate was kind of cool. Even though she knew that there were some other people in the office the time she sang before, she still did it so she won't feel sleepy. She just wanted to make herself feel awakened that time. It was just a bit bad because you were a bit distracted in myLotting because of her voice. At times, I also get distracted and irritated when I'm already sitting in front of my computer and teaching but some of my colleagues would sometimes tell some stories to each other and their voices would get louder and louder. Sometimes, they would even laugh so loudly. I think my students could hear them and I could even hear them clearly too while I'm wearing my headset. I'm also a bit distracted when they would ask me some questions while I'm already talking with my students. It could really interrupt my teaching and my student would also notice that I'm talking with someone else. I just hope that they would also consider their co-workers so there would really be a good working environment at all times. I think those are the only things that irritate me at times while I'm at work. Happy myLotting. :)

There's this girl beside my cubicle who sings, too. But not all the time. And the people here say, "Oh, it's the time of that month". They think there are days of the month she is a loony. Because those are the days she sings. It doesn't annoy me because I'm amused as the rest of them. Other than that, the people here at the office are pleasant to work with.

lol and the worse part is she probably dose not have the voice for singing. I get annoyed mostly by the numerous interruptions especially when I am pressed for time.

I think, i am like your office mate. I would sing along also with the music i am playing on my laptop. Now, i know i might be irritating my 4 other office mates here in our department's room. I will now just dance along in my seat while mylotting also.

Hahaha I also used to sing in my office and I really love songs. It relaxes my mind and my body that helps me to do my work easily. But I make sure that nobody will be distracted by my singing, I don't sing when I know that everybody is working too hard or they are rushing to finish their work and needs concentration because I know I'm not a good singer! He he he every time I sing They Laughs at me and they wil sing with me also because they also love the songs i'm singing. You better put a earphone in your ear, or you can tell them that sorry but you are loosing your concentration when she sings. I know she will understand.

I also have the same experience.But I am a person with strong anti-interference ability.I often put on my headphones into my own music world..You can try it.. Have a nice day!

At first, I don't. But lately, I do. The reason, people have their own distinct personality that we can not change. But then, if the situation is way beyond the line of creating a distraction, the next move is to talk openly with them.
