Lemme tell you the worst thing about working right next to a construction site: I am constantly hearing the beeping of trucks backing up, but it's just faint enough and just frequent enough that I think at times I'm just imagining it. It really can be tough to tell if I'm really hearing it, or if it's just something that's embedded in my head. Even worse, when you have to listen to it on and off all day, it really kinda sounds like an alarm clock. What could be worse than an alarm clock that you can't turn off?
