If her co-worker has her own equal turn to bring in her own iPod with her own music, then I see no problem.

She does.  I dont know why but people choose not to bring their own Ipods in.  I ask every shift if anyone wants to put their ipod in and no one ever has one.  Cant say I didnt try

I think some people are sort of self conscious of the music they listen to.  The place I work we usually get 400-500 customers per shift.  Just my guess.  ...]]> Thu, 20 Sep 2012 17:21:54 +0100 http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/getting-better/beatlesbible-how-should-i-deal-with-this-beatles-hater-at-work/page-2/#p58093 Getting better http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/getting-better/beatlesbible-how-should-i-deal-with-this-beatles-hater-at-work/page-2/#p58093 Or you could do what me and my sister do. We have very different tastes in music but will she agree with me to play our music in a rota kind of way so that she plays hers for a while and then me and like that....? No. So we just play our (very) different music at the same time! In separate rooms but you can occasionly hear the sound of dubstep or Rita Ora (is that right?) coming through ''my music''. Rap + The Beatles, for example = not good.

Actually don't do that. Just thought I´d share the pain.

The point of the thread was more "should i cater to the beatles hates interests" or just say screw it and keep on rockin. Also a welcome opprotunity for anyone else to discuss their run ins with the less fortunate.

Go with the second option my friend.

In my experiences with people who don't see eye to eye with me on things like music, i usually don't bother having music-centered conversations with them.  I know a guy who doesn't think the beatles are all that great, but he loves Janet Jackson.  There is zero sense in me trying to ...]]> Wed, 19 Sep 2012 19:33:03 +0100 http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/getting-better/beatlesbible-how-should-i-deal-with-this-beatles-hater-at-work/page-2/#p58040 Getting better http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/getting-better/beatlesbible-how-should-i-deal-with-this-beatles-hater-at-work/page-2/#p58040 The point of the thread was more "should i cater to the beatles hates interests" or just say screw it and keep on rockin.

Hello all!  Appreciate all the responses.  I did talk a bit with the girl at work about why she hates The Beatles and her reasoning was (get ready for this) because they are old and two of them are dead.  Based on that logic I started to care a lot less if I pleased her.

Never submit to her will! At least as long as she's rude about it.

If there was someone who was playing your least favourite band, would you not mention the fact you hate that band? She may have not said it in a pleasant way. I can almost guarantee (and by that I mean I'm positive) I'd freak out if someone had excessive One Direction on my work shift. You can't be mad.
