Headphones in the terminal
I tried the search function and didn’t find anyone complaining about this one yet.
So I’m in ORD wandering around H terminal and this younger FO (Envoy or AA, I can’t tell anymore) goes walking by wearing Bose wireless headsets. In full uniform. This was the third time I’ve seen guys do this. It takes a lot to irk me, but this one really does. It just seems extremely unprofessional and makes us all look bad. Ear buds were bad enough!
I’m a big fan of using them while on a deadhead or commute to keep my sanity, but while walking from gate to gate? Come on!
Maybe I’m just getting crotchety and old. That is all.

Yeah but they are black.
I saw one bebopping to music on a walk around. Ugh
Personally I don’t like the ear buds, yet I can’t square that with being ok with a guy walking around with a phone on his ear.
There was a time when a generation thought call waiting was rude. The further i get away from making phone calls I can see how it was rude.

Maybe the guy was noise-canceling the hideous beeps from those electric carts in the concourse. I suspect the drivers wear ear plugs, lest they flip out and run screaming through an emergency exit.
