I had to ask the teachers to turn them off, they'd look at it and say "it is" and then we'd have an argument about not being able to hear anything. Eventually I would prove it by turning away, and having them randomly turn it off and on and I could tell them when it was off vs on. Very frustrating, but I got old and now I can't hear shit permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] AA5B@lemmy.world 1 point 1 year ago I’m past the point of being able to hear most of it. We have neighbors with one of those high pitched devices to keep teens from loitering: my teens were driven crazy but I couldn’t hear at all. But my ex is a teacher and I went to see her new classroom. The WiFi had a high pitched whine that drove me crazy yet she couldn’t hear it. I tried to get her to do something about it because I don’t see how anyone can learn with that, especially since students can hear so much better than I. permalink fedilink source parent
