I've got my World of Color hoodie and my WDW gray Mickey hoodie that my parents brought back for me from their last trip.

If we legalize weed and tax it like cigarettes, Bieber is going to give the country or state enough revenue to have a surplus for many years to come...

There's been talk of legalizing it in MD. Keeping Bieber out of the state is reason enough not to.

It's warm enough here today to wear a t-shirt

I brought the deck chairs back out and we are lounging out here like it is summer. Might set up a heat lamp and stay out here until The Walking Dead comes on.

I'm sure he has been in your state before and didn't affect the lives of anyone you know.

Why are people who are hard of hearing so sensitive about it?

I am blind as a bat, and freely admit to people that I need to grab my glasses. Truth be told, I probably need bi-focals, but am unable to wear them.

My partner, however, is 74 years old, and is stone deaf. He is majorly p.o.'d with me right now because I've had to tell him that the music is too loud. I keep turning it down. He keeps turning it up. WAAAAAAAAAAY up.

He says that no one has ever asked him to turn the music down. Secretly, I think they have. He just didn't hear them. A) Because he is deaf, and B) Because the music was too freaking loud, he couldn't hear them.

You and @StarWarsGirl95 have impeccable fashion sense! Hoodies rule!!! I live in hoodies on the weekends in spring, fall, and winter (too bad I can't wear them to work, but I have to dress up more there . . . ). Anyway, I have different kinds and lots of colors, but my favorite ones for winter come from L L Bean, and they are lined in soft fleece, and warm and snuggy!

I dunno, I am deaf and Im not like that.(I had very profound loss of around -80db or more)
I use a cochlear implant and it helps a freaking lot.

but considering your case, maybe he gets annoyed because you keep telling him to get the music down and he can barely get the music at high volumes. (aka you're not letting him enjoy the music)

I hear ya (no pun intended), but this is a new homes sales office. Conversation with potential buyers is impossible with the music that loud.

I think you are misunderstanding me. The music is playing in the open presentation area. I wouldn't care if it were playing in the back room here.
His preferred volume in the sales area makes it impossible to speak with people. We often have 4 or 5 groups of people at the same time (as many as 15-20 people in total) in an area measuring 20' x 30', and the music is absolutely blaring. It's hard enough to carry on conversations as it is.

That's a difficult situation, but if the volume of music or any sound is too loud, that can definitely affect a business environment. Plus, it may appear to some customers to be unprofessional. I wish you luck in dealing with this gentleman at work, and hope that some sort of compromise solution can be found.

It sounds like he is trying to use the same sales techniques as an Abercrombie and Fitch.

I have no idea. My grandfather is hard of hearing and extremely sensitive about it. My mom admits to lip reading and knows her hearing is bad, but will not go get tested to find out why, even though my dad and I have suggested it to her. I don't understand it either.

Hubby and I don't even get in to A&F to hear the music, as he is repulsed by the scent/fragrance/odour just walking by. He often has to walk on the other side of the concourse because the smell gives him an instant headache.

He gets queasy in Bath & Body Works and Basin too.
Those I can handle. A&F, not so much.

My ex didn't like Hot Topix because of the music. He found a bench while we shopped. (I could spend an hour or two there.)

ohh I see, wow.. thats completely different.
he should then keep the noise down since the clients are the targets for the audio.. not him.

Just so he doesn't try to purchase cookies from the Girl Scouts.....
