Headphones and a volume dial that goes to 11.
Or noise canceling headphones, and only up to 5 so you don't destroy your hearing.
Well, it's one louder, innit?
Not no tiny ones either, or they'll still walk up to you with their nonsense. Get some bigass highly visible headphones.
They when they start yapping at you anyway pretend you can't hear them. When they start waving around frantically in front of you, and this is the important part, slowly take off the headphones, look at them sideways and go "huh?". Make them repeat themselves. Don't engage. Get back to work asap with the headphones again.
Eventually they'll tire of this song and dance every time and move on to someone else. Hopefully.
I, personally, have always been fond of headphones that double as ear muffs. Back in the day that meant Sennheisers - it may mean something else now, though.
