To the people who take conference calls on massive over-ear Bluetooth headsets in the airport lounge: you’re talking too loud and you look like an idiot

What do you suggest? Airpods?

Clt? I saw him too

Lol are you standing next to me? Was just observing someone at SFO doing this and thinking “what a terrible idea"

OP, should I just take the Skype call without any headphones on? Or are you suggesting that I carry two pairs of headphones to make you feel better?

Yep A2. That’s what I’m suggesting. A hands free kit that’s meant to be a hands free kit, not to block out so much sound that you’re not even able to hear the volume of your own voice to such an extent that you’re yelling into an airport cubicle and audible (clearly) from 1,000 feet away.

You also look like a tool. But I can live with that if you can

Anyone has any experience to share about losing EAD while on the job? I.e. EAD expired while working and did not get renewed in time because of the current uscis snafu?
