I used to have a coworker who would quietly play the radio at her desk every day, that was juuuust loud enough for me to hear the melodies and it was the kind of mass-market-appeal pop stuff that is the most earwormy music in the world. There was one particular song where every time it came on I would be like WELL TIME FOR A TRIP TO THE BATHROOM because I just couldn't listen to it anymore. Thank goodness she left a couple months ago, and her replacement closes her office door if she wants to listen to music.

And for one awful summer I worked in a coffee shop full time and the radio was always on of course, and I hated a lot of things about that job but I think I might have hated the radio the most, oh my god.

Yeah, my earwormability is definitely not one of my favourite things about myself..... I can sometimes manage to kick an earworm out for at least the moment but it will often sneak back up on me when I'm least expecting it.
