Strangely enough I have a bunch of co-workers who swear they can't get things done without music, noises, or chitchat in the background. One in particular is a reformed trader who uses tracks of noisy trading floors as a focus tool.

I on the other hand need noise-canceling headphones and a confined private workspace to feel really productive. To each their own I suppose!
