(June 19): I jostle for the right spot at home (#WFH). It is a challenge when both working parents are on separate conference calls while the eldest child is zooming with his piano teacher and the youngest is whining for attention.

Once, during a call, I heard the sound of a toilet flush. On another occasion, a mother’s lullaby. While the lullaby was definitely more soothing, it was nonetheless distracting. Being the typical tech-savvy, gadget-yearning dude, I told my wife that I had to get a pair of wireless earbuds with active noise cancelling. And she bought it! Well, to be completely accurate, she bought the excuse.

I googled “best wireless earbuds for conference call”, trusted the review of a well-known website, and spent my money. Admittedly, I was drawn to the review’s “best earbuds below $50” and “AI technology”.
