Disco in DEC-10

You would have thought that hard core dance music would be confined to a nightclub, or perhaps your own front room at a push if you were throwing your own party and the guests were that way inclined. You would be wrong however as in the DEC-10 computer lab the other night while I was trying to concentrate on coursework someone over on the windows machines (a coincidence perhaps?) decided it would be a great idea to play a dance music radio station as loud as the tinny little internal speaker of the machine he was seated at would go.

This is both inconsiderate and darn right annoying to boot. If you want to listen to music in the computer labs there are headphone sockets on the front of all the machines, its not like a small, portable set of headphones isn’t cheap either. Seriously, do people have no thoughts for those who prefer silence or the sound of their own music in their headphones to work to? *sigh*

    Why did you take their blatant disregard for others? You should have said something!

    Sadly, saying something would have meant that I’d probably have ended up in some kind of spiraling discussion/debate/rant and not got my work finished in time to get off to Heather’s for pancakes and that would never do 😉

    In other circumstances I most certainly would have said something and if it happens again I will, so watch out DEC-10 ravers.

    And it happens again – currently enjoying some music courtesy of some DEC-10 morons.
