Because you’re interacting with another human being who is there helping you. I’m guessing you’ve never worked retail/service before. People treat retail/service workers like shit all the time. To wear an AirPod while ordering is another distancing layer that dehumanizes the other person.

- azinman2 2y agoI’m not seeing people working with their own AirPods in. I would not think very highly of such an employee.
