  • Unfortunately, I have both the headphones and the ear buds and I think the cans isolate noise better than the buds. It could be a problem due to a bad fit though. With the buds I could not get a decent fit with the foam tips so ended up getting some tips on Amazon so I lose a little noise isolation there. The size of the buds for the xm5 isn’t the greatest for me either so THAT doesn’t help - I get a little bit of slipping while eating for example. All said, I still think the xm5 does OKAY, but my link buds surpass it due to a better fit.

    The bose might have an overall edge imo going by their reputation of having a good and comfortable fit. My brother has a pair and says they fit real well. I just can’t do the bose because the case is too large for me to carry in my pockets (even the newest model is rather large. The last generation was ridiculous - Bose is kind of crazy with their cases).

    I would make sure you buy a pair from a store with a good return policy so if the fit does not work well for you you can exchange for something else. Everyone’s ears are different so there is no way to say how it will fit for you till you try them on.


  • The National Federation of Independent Business has opposed mandatory sick leave rules at the state level, arguing that workplaces should have the flexibility to work something out with their employees when they get sick.

    What a dishonest statement. They know the burden put on the employee and that a great many of them are forcing themselves to work sick because they don’t really have the option. If employers were flexible with the employees we wouldn’t be in this position.

    The group said the cost of paying workers for time off, extra paperwork, and lost productivity burdens small employers.

    Oh yes, let’s not treat a person with decency because God forbid there is some extra paperwork to fill out.

    I’m sure if you volunteered, they give you the night shift every day if you want

    Not in my case. In the part of the interview where they got to the rotating schedule I asked if I could just do graveyard and they refused. Said they wanted to have management work with all employees or some bullshit. I think they were using it to get around overtime though.

    And its still evil to push the rotating schedule bullshit on your employees to get out of premium pay.
