Rules for the promotion of greater office harmony:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    If you decide to listen to iTunes at the office, make sure that you plug your headphones into the correct jack on your Powerbook.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    If Rule 1 is not in effect, make sure that it takes less<\/em> than thirty seconds for the thought to cross your mind, “Hmmmm, the sound is weaker and tinnier than I expected. I wonder if it’s coming from the built-in speakers?”<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    If neither Rule 1 or Rule 2 are in effect, make sure that you are playing something relatively hip or inoffensive. Which is to say not<\/em> the high-pitched screeching of “Owner of a Lonely Heart<\/a>“. <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    On the plus side, many of my coworkers who share their iTunes libraries have the same execrable taste that I do. Which means I can listen to Erasure or Alphaville or whatnot without actually having to buy those tracks and pollute my own hard drive. Excellent!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
