Preferably, these should be the noise isolating type. In the only time where I had to work in a "shared open office space" <shudder>, I found them the only salvation.
Well, it's certainly an idea. Noise-cancelling headsets are pretty great--I use them for air-travel. It's unfortunate that she's the one that's inconvenienced, not the yakker, but sometimes, I guess it's better than getting in trouble--which it seems like is what happens--if she confronts her.

Plus, as Charlie says, they'd be unmissable. Message here!!! :-)

Honestly, I'm a bit gobsmacked that the bosses seem to take her side. Is it so hard to find a decent worker nowadays? How can someone be doing their job if all they are doing is talking constantly? I should think that they'd be taking Hemmi's side, but maybe it's the CRYING. (Loathe that myself.)
