People who sing/hum at work

OMG!!! I can't stand it when people at work sing or hum along to music. It is SO annoying! It's always the ones who couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. They really get on my nerves. And it seems like they always stick one on the other side of my cubicle. The one who did it the most finally got laid off, and it was nice and quiet. Well yesterday they stuck another one there who hums along with EVERY song, or so it seems. SO friggin annoying!!! Thankfully I can wear my headphones and tune her out. Though that gets annoying too, since I sometimes get headaches. Does anyone else experience this? I sometimes wish I could work alone.

    Em yip its normal, I work in a nursery and my day would feel mundane if we didn't sing. I sing even out with circle and story time etc I make up songs from objects or toys they are holding . My colleagues have tarred me with the mad women brush

    I sometimes start singing at work with out realizing it when no one is around. I don't believe I'm a very good singer. It's just fun.

    I know how you feel. Sometimes I'll be stuck in a class or elevator or some such with someone who thinks they can sing and its just awful. And even if they could sing, I never ask for a serenade. I'm sorry, just try to ignore them or maybe complain to HR since you say you're getting headaches.

      Thankfully I no longer work there, and neither does she, lol. Thanks for the advice though! :)
