Could you?

I voted "No way!"

That high pitched sound would drive me NUTS.

JessLough · Apr 9, 2012

If I had to I could, though I'm good at blocking out annoying noises, I live with Rosey

LauraLeigh · Apr 9, 2012

LOL it was not too bad at first, but after a few hours.... OMG!

I am tempted to email our IT department and Bosses and say if your off we're off from here on out! LOL

AdrianneIsabel · Apr 9, 2012

What is it??

Moth · Apr 9, 2012

That is annoying...

...why is it that things like that always happen when there in no one around to fix them

Alarm on the computer, something is failing and our IT department is on holiday today, as are our bosses so no one is available to fix it, it was blaring without break all day until I shut it down and made the executive choice to manually issue tickets and write receipts until just before we close when I will re boot and input everything at once.... It was that or go mildly insane! The noise is loud, repetitive and non stop!

I can't handle beeping noises like that! I don't know how you did it.

LauraLeigh · Apr 9, 2012

To whoever added the sour cherry pie! THANKS! I could not figure out how to add another after I clicked on poll! I guess I had to request more than 4 options prior! Now it feels like a proper Chaz poll!!!

ACooper · Apr 9, 2012

You know I voted Uh Uh! LOL.......I wanted to smash something just hearing that noise for the length of the video :rofl1:

To help us further appreciate irony? Murphy's law? IDK but it does go down that way doesn't it? LOL

God, no. LOL Barking dogs...sure...I can put them outside. That stupid beeping noise? Heck. No. I don't even like it when the chime sounds letting us know one of the patients has tangled/kinked/dislodged its IV line. If I can't figure out how to unkink it before a tech is able to come in on the weekends I have to listen to it until they get there and it drives me CRAZY. I always feel horrible for the animal that is sitting right by it. Not only are the sick and not getting their IV fluids, they have to listen to that God-awful noise.

Renee750il · Apr 9, 2012

Not just no, but OH HELL NO!

cloudcandy · Apr 9, 2012

I turned that video off half way,things like that DRIVE ME MAD.However that happened at work recently and I didn't notice until someone ELSE got annoyed,once I heard it though,no going back! Poor you

Lilavati · Apr 10, 2012

Oh, he!! no.

I would have a migraine within minutes. I couldn't even make it through the video.

Renee750il · Apr 10, 2012

You know . . . that might be considered a "hostile work environment," lol!

Lilavati · Apr 10, 2012

I don't know about the environment . . . but I'd be pretty hostile after about 15 minutes. That's really inhumane.

LauraLeigh · Apr 10, 2012

Much nicer today!!! IT was here when we opened and switched out the machines... Thank God or I'd have gone home sick... Seriously.... I don't think I could have handled another day of that! And it's busy with commercial traffic so shitting down like yesterday afternoon would not have been possible....

elegy · Apr 10, 2012

That pitch falls in the range I can't hear with my left ear, so it'd drive me bonus crazy because it'd be so uneven. I have the same problem with the pulse ox beep in surgery at my own work. It is so irritating and disorienting to know the thing is on my left but I hear it on my right.

Could you take this for a 10 hour shift?

Could you? LOL

Sure! Your being sensitive!

If I had too...

No way! I'd quit first!

Uh uh! I'd go postal on the IT guy for having a holiday!
