Update: my noise cancelling headphones died mid meltdown at the DMV on Tuesday
The battery gave out while I was waiting at the Sacramento office, so I ended up covering my ears with my hood in the parking lot for 20 minutes instead. Anyone got a pair that actually lasts a full errand day?
The Sacramento DMV on a Tuesday sounds like a special kind of hell, and losing your headphones right in the middle of it is just unfair. I keep a cheap backup pair in my bag now after mine died at a bus stop last winter, and honestly the $20 ones lasted longer than my fancy pair. Hope your next errand day goes a lot smoother.
