What’s your policy re. music in work vehicles?

[Mick Dempsey]

Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not like my old boss who removed the radios from the vans to stop us ‘sitting in the vans all day listening to music’ 

But I cannot abide music on the way to the job, I prefer to quietly brood, planning the work in my head, not listening to some bird screeching about her wet pussy.

On the way home, ok a bit of a celebratory music is in order. 

Am I so adrift of modern mores?  do others prefer to pump themselves up with Rap or the like?

Depends on the way your mind works I believe. I always have something on, either music or radio. It doesn't often distract me. It's normally the other way round; there's something on that I really want to listen to and I get pissed off because I've missed the gist of it due to being too busy thinking about something or other. Same if I'm working on something at home, I have to stop doing what I'm doing if I want to listen properly.

I consider rap to be an often reasonable tune ruined by someone making up rubbish rhymes and talking over it. Banned from anywhere that I can hear it.

I don't really object to any reasonable music but that shite is not music.

I listened to about an hour of myself on Spotify on the way to work today. It really gave me a sense of my own importance.

Answering more seriously, mornings are for quiet. I was only on that because I’d already been in the car for an hour, was having a good run and had warmed up on some Ani DiFranco.
 

You might well be surprised to discover I like Ani DiFranco, she being a Trump-hating, pro-wog, pro-bender, feminist icon and me being… actually the same now I think about it. Nearly. Or maybe it’s because we were once only moderately distantly related. I remember her turning up to my uncle Allan’s funeral in a leather jacket with lizards for epaulettes. Coolest thing I’d ever seen.

I used to listen to music on the way to work.  Often just turned down in the background just to take the edge of the monotony of driving into Oslo.

 

On the way home I usually have a podcast or Audiobook on.
