What do you listen to at work?

When I take the laptop home to work, I'll usually put on a soundtrack or other instrumental album.

Here at work, I listen to the folks in offices next to mine handle phone calls and voice mails. Sometimes I really hate speakerphones.
 
Most of the time, the radio. Unless I take my MP3 player with me, then it could be almost anything.
 
Since I'm on the phone a good deal I tend have Pandora set on my Andrea Bocelli station. It's good music and doesn't interfere with with my calls.
 
When I'm working from home doing the dreaded weekly reports it's usually Jazz such as Dave Brubeck, Thelonius Monk, Charlie Mingus or Wes Montgomery.
When I'm in the car it's my 80's hair metal compilation.
When I'm in any of my stores it's what I like to call 'Spuffy House' which is usually some rubbish 4 to the floor dance music. i block it out.
 
When I worked in retail many moons ago there was piped music playing throughout the store.

It wasn't bad music, just run of the mill radio stuff, but hour after hour after HOUR of it did my head in.
One day the system broke, what bliss :lol until the others started moaning and it was fixed :angry

I just can't listen to music, even music I like, for hour after hour.
 
I listen to my music streaming website. I have everything from CCR to 50 Cents online. So whatever my mood, I have something to listen too. Since I'm always connected to the web, where ever I go, I can listen anytime I want.

Until I lost my ipod just last week, dagnabbit, I was enjoying a splendid mix of music. Such tunes gracing my ears had been Alice In Chains, The Living End, Skid Row, Extreme, Pennywise, Van Halen, yada yada yada...
 
I usually like listening to audio books while at work,lately though its been the Tron Legacy Score by Daft Punk and the Sucker Punch Soundtrack.
 
I rarely ever get to listen to anything at work being a restaurant manager, we don't spend a lot of time sitting in the office. But I do get a little time early in the morning working on invoices.

I've had an iphone/ipod for a year and a half now and it only has 6 albums on it- all of Liz Phairs records- so that's all I ever listen to at work. Why would you want to listen to anything else ?
 
this morning :

France Culture (radio)
Slayer / Reign in Blood
Miles Davis / Kind of Blue

(I like to expand my horizons !)
