[quote=Anonymous]Wow, such a great thread. I didn't know what I had for years. Life changing when a colleague ran in my office and shared an NYT Science article on it. I'm bothered by folks streaming on devices w/o speakers but the setting is also a factor. Drives me mad on an airplane, but probably less likely in bleachers when there are other sounds around. OP, go for the headphones as folks are suggesting. You can always say, "I'm on a call" or "I'm expecting a call at any minute." And I am also triggered by the leg jiggling and other fidgeting. My family has gotten more understanding over the years, even if some of their table manners haven't really changed. We now play Spotify lists while eating dinner and everyone enjoys that. DH, when working from home, might take his lunch into the DR if I am working in the kitchen. He is my biggest trigger. He grew up in a very affluent household, but he, his mother, and sister have atrocious table manners, shockingly so. [/quote]
